Blind Date with a Book

It's time again for the 8th annual Blind Date with a Book. Our patrons love this display. This year to make it a little different we posted a category on each wrapped book that corresponds with our book quest year long challenge.  Barcode number is written on the back.

50/50 Book Quest

Patrons are starting to finish the 50/50 Book Quest (the challenge to read 50 books in 50 categories in 50 weeks). This is the Completion card we have them fill out so we will know their shirt size and if they want someone else to pick it up for them. Shirts will not be ordered until the end of the challenge. I am getting some really good feed back on suggested categories for next year.

Winter Reading 2018

Winter reading sign up has begun. Like years past teen and children are doing bingo cards that encourages them to read different types of books. This program goes through March 9. When they get a bingo they bring in their completed card and they get a prize.

The 50/50 Book Quest is new this year. It is a year long reading challenge for adults that goes all year. The challenge is to read 50 books in 50 weeks. There are 50 different categories including things like; read a book by an Idaho author, read a book with a ghost in it, and read a book with an ugly cover. There is a reading log to track their progress/titles. This ends December 31, 2018. Those who complete the challenge will get a T-shirt.
