Summer Reading Challenge is here! Sign up the whole family at columbuslibrary.org/summerreading or at any Columbus Metropolitan Library location. It’s free and fun for all ages. They'll earn prizes just for signing up, and even more prizes and raffle entries for reading just 15 minutes a day. Summer Reading Challenge ends July 31.
Columbus Metropolitan Library has served the people of Franklin County, Ohio since 1873. With its Main Library and 22 branches, CML is well known for signature services and programs like School Help, Reading Buddies, Summer Reading Challenge and Ready for Kindergarten. The library’s Strategic Plan supports the vision of “a thriving community where wisdom prevails,” which positions CML to respond to areas of urgent need: kids unprepared for kindergarten, third grade reading proficiency, high school graduation, college and career readiness and employment resources.
The library is your student’s after-school space to connect, learn and grow through fun and educational activities. There’s a lot going on! Stop in to learn more about programs including:
- Reading Buddies: One-on-one reading practice with an adult for students K-3.
- School Help: After-school support with schoolwork for students K-12.
- YouMedia: An interactive space for teens to learn technology (at some library locations).
- After-School Snack: In partnership with the Children’s Hunger Alliance (at some library locations).
