Tulsa City-County Library’s all-ages Summer Reading Program is underway through July 31.

This year’s dinosaur-inspired theme, “Unearth the Story,” encourages readers of all ages to track their reading and earn prizes throughout the summer.

Kids who read eight books receive a medal and coupon book, while those who read 20 books earn an additional prize. Teens who read six books receive a compass keychain and coupon book. Adults who read four books earn a holographic sticker and entry into grand prize drawings.

Anyone with a library card can register for the program at any of Tulsa City-County Library’s 24 locations, the bookmobile or the new Summer Reading Program app. Prize pickup, which must be completed in-person, begins June 22 and continues until the end of July. 

Readers looking for recommendations can also use TCCL’s “Your Next Great Read” service, which creates personalized reading lists based on a short survey.
