World on the Move | June 1-July 31
Readers of all ages can participate in 2024 Summer Reading! If 2,000 people register for summer reading, the Friends of the Library and the Glen Ellyn Library Foundation will each give $1,000 to our non-profit partner, Ten Thousand Villages , to support fair trade artisans.
Summer Reading Log
This summer, everyone can read (or be read to) or complete an activity every day and use a paper log or the Beanstack Tracker app to record your progress. During the program, rewards are available at the library for each 15 days you log. Color in, initial, or somehow indicate in the days on the paper log the days you read or complete an activity. When you come to the library to collect your reward, staff will mark your reward redeemed. Come in to the library to collect prizes by Saturday, August 31.
