The Lebanon Public Library’s 2022 Summer Reading Program “Read Beyond the Beaten Path” begins June 1. The program is open to all ages to celebrate reading this summer. Visit the library to pick up a reading journal to keep track of the minutes you read, and then bring the journal back to claim prizes. Families are encouraged to sign up and read together throughout the summer.
Free summer lunches will be provided for children 1 to 18 years of age after Tuesday Storytime and Thursday Performer events. The Lunch Program, provided by the
USDA, is an equal opportunity provider.
