Why should kids get all the summer reading fun?
New Westminster Public Library has just launched its 2017 adult summer reading challenge. Keep track of your summer reading and complete the challenges to win one of three prizes from Royal City merchants.
Join up on your own or encourage friends and family to sign up too.
Get your challenge booklet at either the main branch or Queensborough branch. Keep track of your progress over the summer and complete the form as you go – and don’t forget to add your contact information to the form before submitting it to the prize draw.
For a chance at a prize, submit your completed booklet to the library between Sept. 1 and 7. Prize draw winners will be contacted by Sept. 15.
The challenges are designed to help people explore the library collections, as well as engage with the programs and services available at the New Westminster Public Library.
The collections-related challenges allow you to engage your senses with library collections. Read a book. Watch a film, TV show or instructional DVD. Listen to music or an audiobook. There are also challenges to encourage you to engage with staff for recommendations, view the art displays at the library, or research local history.
Another group of challenges allow you to engage with technology at the library. These challenges encourage you to interact with New Westminster Public Library on social media, use one of our many online services or engage with in-house services such as attending a technology tutorial, researching your genealogy on Ancestry.ca or watching a movie with one of our portable DVD players. There are also challenges that will help you explore and keep track of different reading genres and subjects, as well as record the locations where you read over the summer.
So the next time you’re in, ask to join the New Westminster Public Library adult summer reading challenge and start keeping track of your summertime reading and library activities. You can also email [email protected] or call 604-527-4666 for more.
