 New Summer Reading Program for Adults Why should kids have all the fun? This year, in addition to the Rockland Public Library’s annual Summer Reading Program for children and teens, we’ve added one for adults. Adults, age 20 and up can participate by signing up to read or listen to as few as five or as many books as you think you’ll complete during the eight weeks the program will run (from June 19 to August 14). There will be random prize drawings for gift certificates from local businesses throughout the summer and a celebration at the end of the program. Sign up online here.
Thank you to local businesses who have donated prizes: Kitty Smith Designs (22 Lindsey Street)
