 Summer Reading Program
Print

Programs for all ages 

The Round Rock Public Library's Summer Reading Program is not only a great way for kids to keep up their reading skills, but to reinforce the importance of reading and literacy for the whole family.  The 2009 program "Deep in the Heart of Texas!" ended August 15, with Finale parties with Joe McDermott.

The theme for the 2010 children's program is "Catch the Reading Express." The teen program for 2010 is "Within Arms Reach: The Future is Yours! TTR.10." Look for more information in spring, 2010.

In this program, readers of all ages are encouraged to log the time they spend reading for prizes and rewards. Whether its books, magazines, newspapers or even books on tape, you can count your time spent reading and earn incentives for different levels. Even children who can’t yet read can participate when someone reads to them.

The Libary's Youth Services Division made a music video using Sue Young's song "Deep in the Heart."
