Portland Library’s 2017 Adult Summer Reading Program: Build a Better World! The program runs June 15-August 25
When you sign up for the 2017 Adult Summer Reading Program, you receive a coupon for a free book from the Friends Book Sale. If you read and log 2,000 pages over the summer, you get another coupon for an additional book. Registration begins June 1st and June 15th you can start logging books!
For every 250 pages the Adult Summer Reading participants of Portland Library log as a group, the library will donate money for 1 book to Books For Africa, (https://www.booksforafrica.org/) working to end the book famine in Africa and the largest shipper of library books to the African continent , shipping over 37 million books to 49 different countries since 1988. The project in Eastern Congo works with the local communities to put books into the hands of more children and youth in Eastern Congo, helping to provide them with a better quality education. Together we can build a better world! Pick up the 2017 Summer Reading Program brochures for children, teens & adults to see all the activities that are happening at the library this summer!
