Summer Reading

May 22 - July 29, 2023

Our annual Summer Reading Club is back and bigger than ever this year! Everyone who registers (yes, adults, too!) will get an exclusive WDM Library Summer Reading journal and a fun, library-themed sticker sheet. You’ll track your reading through the handy Beanstack app. Readers of any age who log more than 30 reading days will win exciting prizes at the end of the summer! For information on registering groups (such as classes or daycares) please send a message to youthservices@wdm.iowa.gov

We are bringing back our Weekly Drawings as well, so each time you visit the building, don’t forget to fill out a Weekly Drawing raffle form to win prizes from local businesses throughout the summer. Events for all ages will be taking place as well, so don't forget to check our calendar for more details!

Registration opens on Monday, May 22. You may sign up online, the Beanstack app from the App store or Google Play, or by stopping by the Children's or Adult desks at the library.
