From December 1st until February 28th, patrons who sign up to participate in our program will have their books read added to their overall Reading Score.
Anyone who reads at least five books will earn a prize. Our top three readers in each category will win a gift card! Gift cards and prizes are provided by the Friends of the North Carolina Accessible Books and Library Services.
The four categories for this Seasonal Reading are:
- Digital and Downloadable Books Adults (BARD and Books on Demand)
- Digital and Downloadable Books Youth (BARD and Books on Demand)
- Physical Books Adults (Large Print and Physical Braille)
- Physical Books Youth (Large Print and Physical Braille)
Patrons who read more than 50 books will be recognized in our newsletter, the Tar Heel Talk.
Please Note: Digital and Downloadable Books include books received on cartridges and downloadable from BARD. Physical Books include large print and physical braille books you receive in the mail from our library. If you read from multiple mediums, your highest medium used will be counted.
