2024 Summer Reading Programs at South Park Township Library

Summer Reading at South Park Township Library is back! 

Visit southparklibrary.org for the latest information about all of our Summer Reading programming!


 

From Thursday, June 13th until Wednesday, August 7th, the South Park Library invites adults to join us for some "adventures" in this year's Adult Summer Reading Program! 

For every adult book/audio book you read/listen to, or adult program you attend, you will be given a ticket to fill out for a chance to win gift cards to help you plan an adventure. This prize is for adults only. The prize drawing will take place on Thursday, August 8th.

In addition to the random prize drawing, we will now give a gift card prize to whomever fills out the most tickets!
