end
Background and Discussion:
The Summer Reading Program began in hopes of combatting the tendency for children to lose reading skills over the long summer break. HCPLs Summer Reading Program has grown into an annual event for the whole family. Each summer has a theme and all HCPL branches present a wide variety of programs and special events designed to promote reading for pleasure and to spark the imagination. Participants log books or time read and other activities and are awarded books and other prizes for reaching reading milestones
Expected Impact:
It is our hope that by offering high-quality books as incentives, as well as engaging programming, we will be able to increase the percentage of registered participants who fully complete the two-month literacy program.
