Spring into Reading Challenge

Ready to Spring into Reading with the Library’s latest reading challenge? This is for everyone, from little bookworms to seasoned bibliophiles.

Here’s why you should join the Spring into Reading Challenge:

  • It’s free and easy to participate! Sign up at your local library branch or online.
  • You’ll earn prizes. Everyone who signs up receives a spring-themed registration prize, available starting Monday, April 1, while supplies last. And if you read at least 300 minutes between April 1 and April 30, you’ll be entered in a Grand Prize drawing, a $50 Amazon gift card!
  • It’s a great way to motivate yourself to read. Whether you’re aiming for 300 minutes or just looking for a fun way to track your reading progress, the challenge is a great way to stay inspired.
  • It’s a fun activity for the whole family. Get your kids (and maybe even your spouse) involved and make reading a bonding experience.

Ready to sign up?

  • Head to your local library branch, sign up online or use the Beanstack app.
  • Start logging your minutes read April 1.
  • Keep track of your progress and celebrate your achievements!

Here are some additional tips for making the most of the challenge:

  • Set a realistic reading goal. Don’t try to read too much too fast. Start with a goal that you know you can achieve. Read just 10 minutes each day to reach 300 minutes and a Grand Prize drawing entry.
  • Find books you enjoy. The best way to stay motivated is to read books you like. Need help finding a book? Ask the helpful staff at your library branch. Or use NoveList, a free digital resource with reading recommendations.
  • Make reading a part of your routine. Set aside time each day to read, even if it’s just for a few minutes. Before bed, on your commute, or during your lunch break are all great times to squeeze in reading.
  • Get social! Share your reading progress with friends and family. Maybe engage in some friendly competition to see who has the longest streak of reading on consecutive days or who’s read the most minutes or books.

We hope you have a happy and successful Spring into Reading!
