What is the Summer Reading Program?

The Summer Reading Program starts June 1st and ends July 31st.  This year's theme is:  Make a Splash - Read!  Children can register in person at the Roswell Library (or any A-FPLS library - 33 total!).  They will receive a "reading record" where they'll write down the title and author of the books they read (or the number of hours they read, if they'd rather do it that way). 

Upon completing 10 books or 10 hours, children at the Roswell Library will get a certificate, a Chick-Fil-A coupon, a nametag for the big picture window (to show they've participated in the program ) and a free paperback book, courtesy of the Friends of the Roswell Library.  Because of the high demand, the library can only give away one free book per child and only one Chick-fil-A coupon per child.  That said, children are encouraged to continue reading all summer long!  For every set of 10 books or 10 hours, each child will get a gold star for their nametag.  We want to see a window filled with lots of nametags and lots of stars on those nametags.

There's also a reading program for teens and this year, for the first time, one for adults!  For more details, stop by the Roswell Library anytime between June 1st and July 31st.
