Growing Readers Now Open

We are looking forward to spring here at Bridgton Public Library with our annual spring reading challenge. This year’s theme is: Growing Readers. This is open to all ages to participate. Through the month of March earn raffle tickets for each book you read, book review you write, or activity you complete. There will be three prizes at the Youth Services Desk and three prizes at the Main Reading Desk to choose from. The winners will be drawn on Friday, April 1st. 

We have plenty of recommended reading lists, and our staff is always available and happy to talk about their favorites! Try a new type of book, or learn about new topic, listening to an audio book, or downloading an ebook. We are here to help you if you need some technical support, as well.

Happy Reading!
