The BC Summer Reading Club is a free reading program for children. It is a great way to practice or improve reading skills over the summer, meet new friends, learn more about your community and library, and have fun!
Who can join?
The BC Summer Reading Club welcomes all children and their families to participate, and seeks to provide a free, accessible, and fully inclusive program.
How do we join?
2023 Update: Register at the Chetwynd Public Library anytime!
Do I need a library card to join the BC Summer Reading Club?
Yes! Library cards are free and come with more benefits than checking out wonderful books! Come in and chat with our friendly library staff to learn all the things a library card can do for you and your family.
Do I need to be enrolled in a school?
The BC Summer Reading Club is for school-age children (ages 3-12), but you do not need to be enrolled in a school to join. Homeschoolers are welcome to join!
What do children read for the Summer Reading Club?
Children read story books, information books, graphic novels, and even comic books! They read in whatever language they wish, including American Sign Language, and in whatever format they prefer, including audio books. They can also listen to someone else read or tell stories.
The Chetwynd Public Library staff will be happy to recommend books and more, for your child to enjoy!
What if we will be travelling this summer?
Keep reading! If you are traveling within BC this summer, you can visit any public library!
