Summer Reading 2022

DPL offers Summer Reading Programs for everyone! Reading is essential at every age. Through books, we can learn more about the world around us and learn from the experiences of others. Reading is good for both brain development and physical health. Make time to read, especially during those long, active summer months. Sign up AND track online with Beanstack!

Be sure to log the days you read -- we're aiming for a total of 25,000 days of reading across our DPL community this summer! Watch the total grow at the top of the page or app!
