Adult Summer Reading - Prizes and Programs!

During the months of July and August, adults will have a chance to relax and read some great books while earning tickets toward a weekly Barnes and Noble $25 gift card drawing each Saturday, and the end-of-summer Grand Prize - a 7" Samsung Android tablet.  As always, our patrons get a gentle nudge to read outside of their usual comfort zones, with not one but two 'Bingo' cards giving a choice of 25 Fiction or 25 Non-Fiction categories.  Pick up a card at the library, or download and print your own copy from the links provided here.  Plan to read your first book today - Saturday is coming up fast!

Things to Know:

• The contest runs from July 1st through August 31st
• Read a book from any of the categories on the playing cards - ask the staff for recommendations, or check the blue endcaps in the library each week for books in a featured category
• Get a raffle ticket for each book you read
• Get a Lane Library tumbler after completing 5 squares in a row on either card
• A drawing for a $25 Barnes and Noble gift card will be held each Saturday in July and August
• The Grand Prize drawing will be held Monday, September 1st

Above all, have fun!
