Participants of all ages are invited to take part in the Carmel Clay Public Library’s annual Summer Reading Program from June 1 through July 31. This year’s program theme is “Ocean of Possibilities” and features a partnership with the Humane Society for Hamilton County.
Program participants are able to convert their reading into donations for the Humane Society. Pet treats, pet toys, and other much-needed items will be donated as readers earn digital badges throughout the program.
Children who complete the Summer Reading Program will also earn two free books to keep, while teen and adult participants will be entered into prize drawings. Participants may register for the Summer Reading Program online beginning June 1 through the free Beanstack Tracker app or at carmel.beanstack.com.
The library will also be offering a variety of activities throughout the summer, including storytimes, take-home craft kits, gardening projects, and book discussions. A complete list of events is available at carmelclaylibrary.org/events.
The library welcomes in-person visits at its Merchants’ Square Main Library, Joyce Winner West Branch, and Digital Media Lab. The reopening of the expanded and renovated Main Library at 425 E. Main St. will take place this fall.
