After a whirlwind end to the school year, it can take time to find your groove with a summer routine.
Visiting the library regularly is a great way to add focus and fun to your weekly schedule so summer doesn’t slip away from you.
Here are three ways you can make Burlington Public Library a regular part of your summer plans.
- Join Summer Reading Club! This is a free program for all ages. You can sign up online or in person, set a reading goal, and track your progress. While you can log your reading online each week, visiting the library to do a personal reading check in with a staff member is an excellent way to reinforce a positive reading habit. Did we mention you can win prizes?
- Try new activities with help from library books! Plan a weekly visit to your local branch to check out a book on a new activity or hobby. Then bring it home and try putting what you’ve read into practice. Borrow a book about making slime and then get messy! Check out a new cookbook and try a challenging recipe! Find a book about tying knots and practice your new skill outdoors! The options are as endless as your imagination.
- Add library programs to your calendar. Burlington Public Library has dozens of programs for all ages — from drop-in puppet shows to dance parties to gardening workshops — and they are all free! Some programs require registration so make sure you’re signed up for the library’s e- newsletter to be notified when new programs are added.
Burlington Public Library has branches open seven days a week, all summer long. You can find hours for our local branch on the library’s website.
