It's time to grab a book and get cozy - we're so excited to snuggle in for our 2023 Winter Reading Program for adults!
Here's how it works: sign up online at Beanstack.com. Then, play our bookish Bingo to earn raffle tickets that can be entered for a chance to win Amazon or Barnes & Noble gift cards! Log your reading online from Fri, Dec 1 through Thu, Feb 1 to earn tickets. Readers can earn up to seven raffle tickets: one for getting a Bingo, one for filling your card*, and five bonus tickets for completing randomly selected reading challenges.
*Click here to print a copy of the Bingo card. Please note that raffle tickets can only be collected through Beanstack.
Each bookish Bingo space has a different topic to guide your reading - from books set in winter to banned books, we've got 25 different themes for you to choose from so you won't run out of options.
And what sort of librarians would we be if we didn't offer recommendations? We've picked out books from some of the Bingo categories to help you find your next great read.
Looking for more reading inspo? You can also get personalized book recommendations from one of our Helen Plum librarians! Fill out our Bookmatch form with your reading preferences, and we'll send some recs straight to your email.
Don't forget - kids and teens have reading programs, too! Our littlest readers can sign up for the 1,000 Books Before Kindergarten program. Readers in grades K-8 can join our School Year Reading Progam, and readers in grades 9-12 can participate in our Lincoln Award Bingo. Check out all our reading programs so the whole family can get involved.
Happy cozy winter reading!
