There's SNOW Better Time to READ! Adult Winter Reading Program
The Adult Winter Reading Program will run from January 1, 2012 to March 19, 2012. Patrons may register for the reading program at the Circulation desk. You will receive a bookmark ("game sheet").
For every book you read, a staff member at the Circulation desk will "punch" a snowflake on your bookmark. For every five books read, you will be able to enter a drawing for $30 retail value in books of your choice. After reading ten books, you will receive a special bookmark and library pen. After 25 books, you will receive a Bossard Library mug filled with winter-time treats.
The Grand Prize Drawing ($30 in retail books) will be held on March 19, 2012.
