A Quick Preview

We are leading up to the start of the adult summer reading program. The program will start in June but I thought I would give everyone some idea of what to look forward to.
  • Participants would be free to read or listen to any book of their choosing.  We have a great selection here at Windsor Locks Public Library and we always have good ideas if you are at a loss.
  • When you return your book to the library you will receive a form to fill in your name and the author and title of the book you read. If you choose, you may give a brief review on the back of the form.
  • Each form you fill out will give you a chance to win a prize.All these chances will lead up to a secret grand prize.
  • Each week we will tally up the most popular books and announce them on this site and hopefully share some of those reviews (anonymously if you prefer).
We are looking forward to a wonderful summer and hope you will enjoy this new program!
