The Peoria Public Library is calling all bookworms and casual readers alike to cozy up with their favorite stories this winter season. With the holiday downtime upon us, the library's Winter Reading Program is in full swing, setting a challenge that’s perfect for every age group. It's your chance to hunker down with those books you've been meaning to read and possibly win some prizes along the way. Participants are required to read for a minimum of 20 minutes per day for at least 20 consecutive days.
As reported by the City of Peoria's news release, the program encourages readers to log their minutes spent exploring the worlds between the pages. Once you've hit your goal, submit your reading log to the library, and a prize will be yours. It's an initiative that not only fosters a love for reading but also serves as an incentive to take a break from the screens that often dominate our attention during the holidays. Both Peoria public libraries are distributing reading logs, which can easily be picked up during your next visit.
With the January 3 deadline approaching, participants still have time to read and explore a wide range of genres, from mystery and romance to history and fantasy. The Peoria Public Library’s program encourages readers to expand their literary interests while working toward a prize. To qualify, all reading logs must be submitted by the deadline, making timely submission essential.
If you need more details or guidance on the Winter Reading Program, Peoria's library page has you covered. Just head over to their website at peoria.polarislibrary.com. Participants can access helpful information ranging from how to track their reading minutes to details about the rewards being offered. The program provides a straightforward and engaging way to brighten the winter season through the enjoyment of reading, as per the City of Peoria.
