Summer Reading Program
Saturday, June 15 - Thursday, August 15, 2013
Readers of all ages will devour books this summer at the San Diego Public Library. Join the summer reading fun at your local library with prizes*, entertainment, story times, music and, of course, lots of great books! It's a great way to enjoy reading over the summer.
All you have to do is sign up (click the age appropriate button at the left), read books, and fun prizes will be yours. If you have someone read to you, that counts too! Receive incentives just for signing up.
Summer Reading Program events will be added to our calendar as they become available. We'll have storytimes, music, magic, crafts, author readings, book discussions, and more.
Don't know what to read this summer? Check out our Reading is So Delicious reading recommendations.
*While supplies last. The Library reserves the right to substitute prizes based on availability.
Reading (and Feeding) Is So Delicious!
The San Diego Public Library is partnering with the Jacobs & Cushman San Diego Food Bank this summer! Donate non-perishable food at your local branch library in designated bins. Our system-wide goal is to collect at least 7000 lbs of food this summer! Please contact your local branch to find out about special programs and incentives relating to the Food Drive.
