Join the TD Summer Reading Club at the Library!

Registration is now open! Every registered child will receive a free TD Summer Reading Club kit, available for pickup starting June 26. Our incentive program would not be possible without the incredible support of the Lanark Civitan & our local businesses. A full list of supporters is available at the link below.

Beginning July 2, bring your reading journal to the library once a week, share the books or chapters you've read (or been read to), earn prize chips, and win fun rewards throughout the summer. If you miss a week, that's okay - just bring your journal on your next visit!

Visit the website www.lanarklibrary.ca/td-summer-reading-program to register, learn more about the program, and see a list of our generous sponsors.

Stay tuned for the launch of our July and August programming schedule - it's packed with summer fun!

Happy reading!
