| Adults, don't let the kids have all of the fun! Join in now through September 6, 2020. Read or listen to a book, add it to your log, and you will be entered into a drawing for a gift card. Readers can earn up to eleven entries. Ten entries can be earned for reading or listening to books. One entry can be earned for attending a virtual program for adults.
While the library is closed you can fill out the virtual bookmark. The virtual bookmark will be emailed to a librarian who will enter you into the drawing. You can also sign up through Beanstack as well.
All ages can participate in our Summer Reading Book Trailer contest which includes a chance to win up to $50. Do you like books? Do you like making movies? Consider entering Alexandria Library's Book Trailer Contest.
