The second annual NMPL Winter Reading program is here and we could not be more excited about all the great stuff we have planned for you!

Ages 12 and under will earn tickets for every 10 minutes read, with a triple entry earned when they reach 100 minutes read. Teens/Adults will earn entries for every hour read.

THE GAME
Pick up a Bookopoly board from a circulation desk and read your way around the board to earn NMPL Bucks to spend at future events like Little Bookshop on Market Street and Santa’s Workshop! (Reading time for Bookopoly counts toward reading time for the grand prize drawings.)
The snow may be piling up and the icy winds blowing, but we’ve got plenty to keep you occupied this month with a spectacular Winter Reading Challenge!
