DAYTON, Ohio ( WDTN ) — Summer is the perfect time to read, and local libraries programs are encouraging everyone to pick up a book, regardless of age.
Summer reading programs offer a way to track your books through the summer months, and also gives readers a chance to win prizes and partake in local events. Multiple Miami Valley libraries are offering programs for kids, teens and adults.
Most of the libraries listed use the platform “Beanstack” to allow readers to track their hours online or on their mobile device. Some programs still offer a physical sheet to track your progress.
