The Sheridan Public Library’s (SPL) Summer Reading Program, “Imagine Your Story,” recently wrapped up with readers eager to help out the community.

COVID-19 led to a different approach this summer by moving SPL to an online format for all readers pre-K through 12th grade. Readers were challenged to complete different levels of reading dependent on age group. The children earned weekly prizes and worked toward a community goal. For each book read, participants earned a donation credit to Sheridan Youth Assistance Program.

“We wanted to give back to our community by helping out families during this time of uncertainty,” said Summer Reading Coordinator Lindsay Spencer.
