Summer Reading 2023

Beginning Saturday, June 3, and ending Saturday, July 29, the Nampa Public Library invites community members of all ages to participate in the 2023 Summer Reading Program!


How to Participate

Youth ages 0 – 12: Visit Nampa Public Library’s 1st floor information desk in the children’s area to receive a youth reading log. This year we are encouraging youth to set their own reading goal of minutes read per day for 30 days. A common goal is reading for 20 minutes a day. The backside of the reading log features a just-for-fun bingo sheet with suggestions of activities that are related to this year’s theme, All Together Now. After 30 days of reading for the desired number of minutes per day come back and visit the 1st information desk to choose a book to keep! This program begins Saturday, June 3, and ends Saturday, July 29.
