Middlesex Library Summer Reading Program Is Open. Here's How To Sign Up

Register on Beanstack by July 5 for a chance to win a $150+ beach bundle, with an iPad and Kindle up for grabs at summer's end.

MIDDLESEX, NJ - The Middlesex Public Library has launched its summer reading program, inviting families to sign up on Beanstack for a season of reading challenges, badges and prizes running through mid-August.

Participants can register now through the free Beanstack app or at middlesexlibrarynj.beanstack.org. Families who register each member for a reading challenge between June 1 and July 5 will automatically be entered to win a beach bundle packed with shore essentials — with one prize for an adult winner and one for a children's winner. Prizes are valued at $150 or more.

Starting July 6, participants can begin logging reading and activities to collect Beanstack badges. The more entries logged, the more chances to win prizes. Reading challenges run from July 6 through Aug. 14.
