Adult Summer Reading: Coming Soon!


Adult Summer Reading Program will soon be here!  NPL would like to thank our donors for their support so that we're able to offer incentives and prizes to our adult readers.  Summer Reading isn't just for kids!  The local business who are donating prizes for the Adult Summer Reading Program so far are Ace Hardware, Crimson and Gray, Daily Grind, Neill's Flowers and Gifts, and Snap Fitness.  Thank you for your support!

This summer’s Grand Prizes are funded by a grant from our local Wal-Mart.  Two participating patrons will randomly be chosen for the Grand Prize; each will have a choice between a $150 gift card (to Book People of Moscow or Barnes and Noble) or a selected eReader (Nook Simple Touch, Kobo Touch, or Kobo Mini) with cover, with the remainder of the value to be given as a gift card.  Thank you, Wal-Mart!

We are eternally grateful, as always, to the Friends of Neill Public Library for their amazingly generous support. Support from the Friends has funded all of the library’s programming this year, as we have no city funding for this line.  Regular support from the Friends also funds performers and prizes for the Youth Summer Reading Program, as well as year-round programs and materials purchases. 

Participating in the Adult Summer Reading Program is painless: no sign-ups, registrations, or reading logs required!  To enter to win prizes:

1) check out books from NPL.
2) begin reading those books on or after June 1st.
3) finish reading those books by July 31st.  

That's it! 

Every time you finish a book (or audiobook or magazine or downloadable book—print or audio) that meets the above criteria, stop by the Summer Reading Table to fill out a drawing slip with your library card number and drop it in our box.  Any book you read and finish counts, even picture books, so read to the kids in your life! 

Your Information Librarian is available should you have any questions.  We look forward to seeing you in the library soon!
