IT'S SUMMER AT THE LIBRARY!
Even though it's not officially summer yet, we're celebrating summer at the library. June 1st
is the start of our Summer Reading Program. We have a program for all ages.
For babies parents read to their babies and do different activities. The prize is a board book.
This year for children up through the 6th grade there is a change. Instead of keeping a record of time spent reading, children will read 10 books and turn in their forms for a medal and other prizes. This qualifies them for an entry for the grand prize.
Young adults(Grades 6-12) fill out a form for each book read and turn it in for weekly prize drawings and a grand prize.
Don't forget the Adult Summer Reading Program. Fill out a form for each book read and turn it in for a chance at great prizes. Fiction or non-fiction books are acceptable!
Come in and get all of the details on Summer Reading Programs or enter online at our website.
Have a great Summer and thanks for reading.

TIME FOR SUMMER READING
It's time for those lazy Southern summer days spent on the front porch with a glass of iced tea and a good book. Or do you you enjoy stretching out on a beach blanket with a good mystery? That sounds nice, doesn't it? But maybe it's not realistic for your family. For a lot of us summer is a busy time with regular jobs, sports activities, summer camps, working in the yard, and vacations. It is a great opportunity, though, to try to make time to read some new books.
The Charleston County Public Library has summer reading programs for all ages- children, young adults (grades 6-12), and adults.
