S
ummer is just around the cor-
ner, and that means that things
are really heating up at De-
schutes Public Library. Starting June
1, readers and adventurers of all ages
can sign up for the Summer with the
Library program, and open the door
to a whole season of possibilities!
This summer participation is
even easier with two ways to join the
fun. Once the program begins, par-
ticipants can sign up online using
Beanstack, the library’s virtual sum-
mer reading and activity tracking
app, or go old school and sign up at
their local library.
Upon registration, children and
teens will receive a free book and
adults will get a collectable book-
mark (while supplies last). Partici-
pants of all ages will have from June
1 through August 31 to read, explore
and even enter for a chance to win
prizes. Prizes will be drawn after
August 31.
The fun doesn’t end there, how-
ever! All Deschutes Public Library
locations offer DIY activities and
craft kits throughout the summer
to inspire creativity and learning.
The library also offers ongoing vir-
tual programs, including weekly
story times and activities for kids,
teens and adults. Links to program
recordings and information on up-
coming events can
be found here: de-
schuteslibrary.org/
calendar/event-
guide.

With all this excitement, June 1
can’t come soon enough. Go to de-
schuteslibrary.org/summer for more
information, updates and a count-
down to the second the fun begins.
For general information about the
library, including hours and loca-
tions, please visit our website at de-

Wherever you are, and whatever
your interests, we look forward to
having you create, read and explore
with us this summer!
