Summer Reading: All Together Now
Our favorite time of year is here and better than ever!
Get reading and creative all summer long at the Geauga County Public Library with help from our free Summer Reading Program.
Participation is easy! Log your summer reading and activities by creating a Beanstack account in just a few short steps. Over the course of the summer, as you read and participate in activities both at home and at the library, log back into your Beanstack account and record your doings for a chance to win one of our Summer Reading Program’s grand prizes.
If you aren’t a fan of tracking your progress virtually Summer Reading Program slips for each age range are available at all six Geauga County Public Library branches, where patrons are able to take the slips home, fill them out, and return them to the library to record their progression.
Summer Reading is for everyone in Geauga County!
