WHAT'S HOT FOR SUMMER

Summer is the time of year to read what you want and we're here to help. 2017's Summer Reading Club will once again have lists filled with suggestions on the latest and greatest books for summer. Prizes include a paperback book of your choice when you finish the program, chances to win a weekly raffle drawing for a $10 gift certificate for Little Red Hen, and a grand prize drawing for a $25 gift certificate for Starbucks!

Brand new this year is the option for you to sign up and keep track of your books online! Simply go to glencoelibrary.beanstack.org to sign up beginning 30 May 2017 (Tuesday); you can start recording your books 3 June 2017! If you'd rather sign up in person or by email, just stop by the Library or email us at radesk@glencoelibrary.org starting Wednesday, 24 May 2017.
