Summer Reading 2023 is in the books, and the NYS Library is gathering stories and statistics from public libraries across the state. We're tracking participation by kids and teens, as well as the number and type of programs and activities that were offered.
It may be hard to believe, but the next Summer Reading season is just around the corner, and the theme for 2024 is: adventure! With the slogan “adventure begins at your library” and engaging illustrations by Juana Martinez-Neal and Rob Donnelly, Summer Reading 2024 is sure to bring attention to the adventure that awaits library users across New York.
Libraries are excited about the many possibilities that an adventure-based theme holds for programming and events for all ages. Many public libraries will actually begin the planning cycle soon for Summer Reading 2024!
