Instructions

Mark off every day you read, either in Beanstack or on your paper tracker.

We encourage reading (or being read to) for at least 20 minutes a day. All forms of reading, including audiobooks and comics, count.

When you’ve earned a badge, come to either Shaker Library branch to pick up your prize.

Earn badges at 15, 30, 45, and 60 days of reading. Anyone who reads for 30 days completes the program and receives the grand prize, a tote bag and a book!
