How it works:

This year we will be using a program called Beanstack to keep track of Summer Reading Program participation. With Beanstack, you can log your reading minutes and activities online or with the Beanstack Tracker app on a smart phone or tablet. If you participated in our Summer Reading Program last year, then you probably already have a Beanstack account. We will also be offering a paper reading log for those who would like to keep track of their reading offline. For a full set of instructions, see the document "Program Instructions - English" on the Quick Links side bar menu.

All types of reading minutes count:

• Read print materials such as books, graphic novels, magazines and newspapers
• Read E-books and other online resources
• Listen to audiobooks
• Read to or be read to by someone else

Activity Badges:

In addition to reading, there are 10 activities you can complete to earn additional raffle entries. 

Incentives:

Sign up: kids & teens to age 18 earn an Atlantis Fantasyworld certificate good for one item from a special selection of books.

Raffle prize winners will be notified at the beginning of August by email or phone.
