As the heat of summer rolls in, the Peoria Public Library is kicking off its Summer Reading Program 2025, an initiative aimed at fostering a love of reading in the community and rewarding literary dedication with prizes. Open to both kids and adults, the program encourages participants to read for at least 20 minutes per day from last Sunday through August 1, 2025, according to the City of Peoria.
By registering online or at any local Peoria library, members can start their literary journey, immersing in books and earning points. These points, once collected, can be exchanged for a variety of rewards, including a free book, as announced in a statement by the city. Tucked away in the pages of books, secret codes await participants, and library programs or community experiences invite readers further into this summer's labyrinth of learning.
The process is fairly straightforward: read, gather codes, and take part in challenges or events. The points can then be redeemed for prizes, encouraging consistent engagement throughout the program's span. Details on how to sign up and more can be found at the official website, a resource for those interested in this community endeavor.
