Summer Reading Registration

Summer Reading Registration Table

Hopefully, you've all registered for Teen Summer Reading at PLCMC. If not, teens (rising 6th grader to 12th grader) can visit http://www.libraryloft.org/tsr/ to learn more about it and to sign up.



Our teens at FRL are helping all patrons - not just teens - register for summer reading. Our teen summer volunteers not only greet everyone who enters the library, but they also inform them of our summer reading programs for toddlers, children, teens and adults.
Pictured above is Jessica, one of our teen volunteers, and Latonia, our teen intern.
