2010 Adult Summer Reading Program
Who says kids should have all the fun this summer! The Grant County Library has a fun-filled reading program just for you!
Why does the Library offer a Summer Reading Program for adults?
To nurture a sense of community – The Library is a great place to meet your neighbors and members of your community.
To encourage reading for pleasure – Did you know that just six minutes of reading can reduce stress levels by more than two-thirds? That’s better than sipping a cup of tea, taking a long walk or listening to music!
To help our children learn – Research shows that students who read four to five books over the summer score better on fall reading tests. Set a great example for the young people in your life…. Read together!
To provide opportunities for lifelong learning – The pursuit of knowledge through lifelong learning has wonderful benefits for adults.
The program begins as soon as you sign up! Enjoy the program throughout the summer. To celebrate and end the program the library will host an Adult Summer Reading party on August 26th at 6:00pm with a light supper and lively conversation about what you’ve read during the program. Bring your category sheet and share your comments with the group.
