Summer Reading Rules
- Books/audiobooks (digital or physical) should preferably be from the Library's collection, but it is okay if they are not; you may still read them for the program.
- This year, reading logs will track hours spent reading rather than the number of books read.
- You may record up to 5 hours of reading on each online form.
- There are weekly drawings for a $10 Amazon gift card. You must read a minimum of 5 hours each week and submit an online reading log to be entered into that week's drawing. Fridays at 11:59 p.m. is the cutoff for submitting a reading log for that week's drawing.
- Each week that you read 10 hours or more you will receive a free book.
- All participants who complete 35 hours of reading will receive a certificate for a one-topping Personal Pan Pizza from Pizza Hut and be entered into the grand prize drawing.
- The last day to submit reading logs is August 6.
- All prizes must be picked up in person at the Berrien Springs Community Library. No exceptions.
- The link to the online summer reading log will be available Monday, June 21, 2021.
