Library Happenings

Summer Reading Program

It's not too late to join the library's summer reading program. Think back to your childhood and you'll probably remember how this works: First, read books! Then, win prizes!

Here's how to get involved:

• Stop by the lending library to pick up your punch card and check out some summer reading.
• When you've read five books, come back into the library for your very own Bitch Magazine Tote (which work quite perfectly as book bags).
• The fun doesn’t stop there: every book that you read from our library counts as a separate entry into a drawing for a mystery grand prize. The more you read, the better your chances of winning!

The summer reading program runs from July 1 through September 30. Whether you’re reading on the beach or on the job, we’ve got what you need: girl guides, media studies, memoirs, feminist film theory and much, much more. So get yourself over to the Bitch Community Lending Library for some summer fun.
