The Hollidaysburg Area Public Library’s Summer Reading Program is a family read-to-me program. Family members read 10 books a week to their preschool child during each week of the program (a total of 60 books), recording the book titles on a reading log provided by the Library. (Note: Books read more than once can be counted each time they are read.) A small participation prize is awarded each week after the book log is checked by staff members.

Option One: Individual Check-In. Once a week for seven weeks: Choose among the days and times available, and check in at the Library. You do not have to arrive at the same time or same day each week; this permits flexibility in your summer schedule. Check in takes only a short time; just long enough to return ten finished books, select and check out ten new ones, and receive your participation prize for that week.
