Summer reading programs are soon going to kick off in Berks and Lancaster County! Our libraries are truly one of the most incredible resources in our communities — and there’s no better time to discover everything they offer than during the summer!
Libraries are one of the most amazing resources in most communities- offering programs for everyone, from infants to adults. You can find free programs for families, opportunities to explore museums and zoos in our surrounding counties for FREE, providing a safe space for kids to play & teens to socialize. They even offer "libraries of things" for individuals to borrow- ranging from STEM games & activities to power tools and bounce houses. While there are always exciting activities happening, summer is the perfect time to take advantage of everything our libraries have to offer. If you haven't yet stopped by one of the 23 libraries in Berks County or 17 in Lancaster County, this is your sign to go!
