Round Rock: Successful Community Reading Challenge Leads To Donations

Press release from City of Round Rock:

September 3, 2020

Readers succeeded in reaching the Round Rock Public Library’s goal of 1 million points during this year’s Community Reading Challenge, which equals more than 16,000 hours of reading! Since the goal was met, the Library’s support organization, Friends of the Round Rock Public Library, donated $250 each to the Round Rock Area Serving Center and to the Williamson County Regional Animal Shelter. A few lucky readers also won gift cards in a drawing sponsored by the Friends of RRPL.
