You can still sign up for Summer Reading!

Ours is a flexible, fun-filled reading program for Exeter residents and members of the library. 

Participants set their own weekly reading goals, and the program is geared to children age 3 and older.

The program runs from July 10th - August 18th, with a special program each Wednesday afternoon.

Book Blast

Children aged 9-12 can participate in our regular program, or an alternative one called Book Blast! Two books will be read by participants, which will be available to read before the event, with a follow-up "book-talk" and interactive activities.
