You are invited to participate in a virtual summer reading program by clicking on the link to READsquared. This virtual program has built-in incentive badges, games, and certificates. There are 4 age categories to choose from: pre-K, school age, teen, and adult. We welcome people of all ages to participate in this virtual program. The state-wide READsquared subscription for New Hampshire public libraries is funded by the FY20 IMLS CARES Act grant, through the New Hampshire State Library. http://ossipeepubliclibrary.readsquared.com/
In addition to the virtual summer reading program, we will be offering a more traditional Children’s Summer Reading program. Materials for the program will be gathered in an all-in-one Children’s Summer Reading Bag. This bag will contain a reading log, a certificate, a bookmark, a book, stickers, and some activities to be done at home. This program is for Ossipee Public Library patrons aged 3-18. Registration is required. Please call the library at 539-6390 to register. Registration opens on Monday June 22 and closes on July 2nd. The summer reading bags will then be assembled, and participants will be called to arrange a day and time for pickup.
At this time, the library is still closed to the public, but we are offering an outside pick-up service, drop off copy and fax services, and appointments with AARP for help filing the NH DP-8 forms for low and moderate income property tax relief.
Wishing everyone a summer of happy reading.
