You can see on our homepage that we have an easy to find Summer section. You can visit our Summer homepage, reading programs, summer reading, or summer concert series straight from our website. Don’t forget to check out this summer’s awesome concert lineup. Let’s make Summer 2015 one to remember!
We hope you’re joining us in our 2015 Read Harder Challenge (flyers at Circulation and Reference), where we are challenging ourselves and you by reading books based on place, author, subject, etc. Why? Because we’re stretching out of our reading comfort zones and trying some new things. Don’t forget that anything you read for the challenge can also count towards your summer reading! School summer reading counts too (for FTPL Summer Reading and the challenge).
Don’t know where to start? We offer a variety of reading recommendations:
– Staff Pick Bookmarks (located at the Circulation and Reference desks) These change frequently and are always stocked
-Staff Pick Display – these books are located on the shelves in the aisle of Adult Fiction
– Staff Pick of the Week : blog post and added to our Facebook album (one for 2014 and one for 2015) and Pinterest page
– This challenge has a support group on Goodreads.com where you can get reading suggestions for each category, and tell others what you think
-Check out our Pinterest Book Recommendations board – we’ve posted tons of lists of all kinds. There is definitely something you’ll love here!
-We have a book recommendation page where you can get newsletters on your favorite types of books sent straight to your email
It’s never to late to start, and anything you’ve already read this year that fits into a category counts! Join us in diversifying our reading, and check out some new books today.
Don’t miss what’s happening at FTPL! We’re on Twitter, Facebook, WordPress and now Pinterest!
