St. Louis County Winter Reading Program
The St. Louis County Library’s annual Winter Reading Club runs through February 28, 2019. Last year over 52,000 people participated in the club, which offers fun programs and reading opportunities for the whole family. Participants can track their reading online. To get started, register here by clicking on Sign Up for Free.
ELA Teachers, the program has gone digital this year. The SLCL is no longer delivering paper logs and posters to schools. Students and adults need to register online and log their reading digitally.
Step 1: Register online.
Step 2: Log reading.
Step 3: Go to your local library branch to pick up your prizes: sponsor gift cards (Canes, Chilis, Penn Station), a temporary tattoo, and raffle entry.
TEACHERS, If you would like to register your class as a whole, contact Megan McCarthy at mmccarthy@slcl.org
