In case you missed it: the library is now open for limited browsing! You’re welcome to come into the library for short visits to find and check out materials. This also means that if you’ve earned beads for your Summer Reading necklace over the summer, you can come right up to the Youth Services desk to pick up your prepackaged order! (If you are not yet comfortable coming into the library, we can still schedule a time for the pickup window.)
We do ask that you continue to email kids@amesfreelibrary.org so we can bag the beads ahead of time, as part of our effort to limit visitors’ time spent in the library.
Remember that the program has been extended through Saturday, September 12, so even if you haven’t signed up yet, it’s not too late! Everyone earns a necklace or keychain and a brag tag, and you can earn beads with as little as 15 minutes of reading! Go check out the ReadSquared platform to log your reading today!
