The month of July
means we are midway finished with Summer Reads. If you have not signed up to
participate this year, there is still time. Follow the link to learn more about this year’s program. You can see the virtual programs on our YouTube
channel, even if you are
not signed up for the program.
It’s not too late
to sign up for the 9th Annual Adult Reading Challenge either. The challenge
runs through November 30, 2021 and has multiple levels to make it easier for
busy adults to participate. If you are
interested in taking the Challenge, you can find more information at https://mydpl.org/arc/ or call the Marketing and Outreach office

While browsing the
National Day calendar, we found that July 24th this year is National
Day of the Cowboy. The fourth Saturday in July is set aside to celebrate
hardworking cowboys and cowgirls and the contributions they have made to
American culture and heritage. Since the cowboy is an iconic character in
literature that did not make it on the reading log, the July task is to read a book with a Cowboy/Cowgirl as the
main character.
Happy Reading,
Pardners!
