Please note, these Winter Reading Programs require you to sign up to participate. Each location runs its own program and participation, timing, and incentives will likely vary by city and by branch. Contact your local library to find out the specifics for their program – this year many locations are running the “All the Feels Winter” challenge, which encourages readers of all ages to feel, experience, and dive into how reading enlivens our emotions).
