Orleans Parish Library Summer Reading Program

June 25, 2015
New Orleans Public Library’s 2015 super-hero themed Summer Reading Program offers something for everyone! Each of the 14 library locations will host free events for children, teens, and adults throughout June and July. Beat the summer reading slump by reading 8 books or 800 pages, and children and teens who meet this goal will receive special rewards! Be a Bookworm this summer! Read 20 books or 2000 pages to get your bookworm certificate, a free tote bag (while supplies last) and other rewards.
