The prizes include tickets to local attractions for children, such as the Crayola Experience and the Doylestown Rock Gym, and gift cards for adults.

The library has a collection of over 100,000 books, e-books, audio books, downloadable media, DVDs and video games.

“When school is out, the library is the place where young minds can continue to exercise that reading muscle and get hooked on imagination and discovery,” Lehu said.
