2026 Summer Library Program

I have been waiting for this since the Spring Reading Program ended! I was so chocked that I actually finished it, but this is the year where I said that I was actually going to try completing reading challenges. We'll see how this one goes, though. Even though I join every year, I don't think I've ever completed one of my library's summer reading challenges 😅 Lol.

Library Springtime Reading Challenge *Update*

I don't know why I thought I failed this challenge, but for the last week I've been sad about it... I DIDN'T, though! Omg! All I needed to do was look at the freaking paper for the dates! 😂 For some reason I thought the challenge ended on the 21st, but it doesn't! It ends today, on the 30th, and I finished this challenge like a week ago! Anyway, I'm gonna go to the library today and see if they still have prizes available. I literally could've gone last weekend to check 🤦‍♀️ In my defense, I've been sick for like a month, so my brain has been struggling these days 😂

Library Springtime Reading Challenge

I went to my library last week, as I do most weeks 😆 and I saw that they had a Spring reading challenge! I was so excited! They always have reading challenges in the Summer, but I believe this is the first time they have one in the springtime. So I obviously had to join because I don't have nearly enough challenges going on right now (lie lol).

2025 Summer Library Program

One thing I look forward to every summer is our library's Summer Program. I've been participating in it for like 6 years now, I think? I'm always terrible at it, but I find it fun nonetheless. Lol. This year, the program goes from June 6th to August 15th.

2024 Summer Library Book Bingo

It's that time of year for my library's Summer program! This year it goes from June 7th to August 16th, and it has this sort of Reduce, Reuse, Recycle sort of theme to it, which is cool. I have been participating in this program for the last... 5 years now? It's been a while. Lol. And this program is actually what got me into learning Japanese! One of their challenges in 2019 was to use Rosetta Stone through the library (it's free when you use it through them!) to learn a language and I picked Japanese! I have been learning it on and off for the last 5 years and it has been so fun! (I actually JUST got back into it last week after not having practiced in like a year 😬 I am honestly shocked at how much I remembered despite the fact that it had been a year since I last did a lesson. Lol).

They have a lot of fun activities to do that involve using the library resources, they have virtual events, and they even have in-person events as well! My youngest brother is in a Mariachi band and the library hired them to play at a bunch of library events in branches all over the state. They did this last year too and the patrons loved it, apparently. Lol. I've seen my brother play before so I didn't bother going to one of these events to watch them play. Lol. I am sooo supportive 😆 I might go this year... maybe. Lol.
