Summer Reading: Summer of Stories

Campbell County Public Library has everything you need to make this summer one for the books. CCPL’s new Summer Reading theme is Summer of Stories! Throughout June and July, all branches will have programs that add to the chapters in your summer story, including performances, crafts, activities and more.

Win prizes by participating in the Summer of Stories! From June 1 through July 26, patrons of all ages (i.e., children, teens, adults) can win weekly-themed prizes by logging six activities per week and submitting their log in person at a branch or online through Beanstack. Qualifying activities include reading, attending a library program and using library materials/resources. Only one activity can be logged per day, but each activity can be logged multiple times per week.
