Winter Reads

The Winter Reading Program begins January 2!

January means the start of Winter Reads, the adult winter reading program for Pioneerland Library System. The program starts at the Grove City Library on Friday, January 2, and ends Friday, March 13.

You can sign up anytime until early March. When you sign up, you’ll get a book bag, while supplies last. You’ll also get a reading log to track and rate the books you read beginning the day you sign up. If you read 3 books by the time the program is done, you can choose a small prize. If you read 3 more, you can pick an additional prize. The program can be completed only once per year.

In the past we’ve limited participation to adults, but this year teens age thirteen and up are welcome to participate if they wish.

The prize choices include mugs, candy bars, book lights, notebooks, and can coolers, while supplies last.

You can read any books you choose: library books or your own, fiction or nonfiction, print or audiobook or ebook.
