2024 Summer Reading at LPL

2024 Summer Reading at Lewiston Public Library

June 24th – August 17th, 2024

The 2024 Summer Reading program at Lewiston Public Library begins Monday, June 24th and will run until Saturday, August 17th. The Library will have free, public events, performers and programs for children, teens, and adults throughout the summer. This year’s theme is Read, Make, Explore! 

Check out our calendar to see upcoming events and view the pages below for more information about each program:


This year all ages are using a bookmark reading log to track reading and activities for prizes. Here’s how it works:

  1. Pick up a bookmark 
    • Kids bookmarks on the 3rd floor
    • Teen bookmarks on the 2nd floor
    • Adult bookmarks on the 1st floor
  2. Complete any 5 activities from our Summer Reading bookmark
  3. Turn it in at the Library to be entered into prize drawings!

The first 10 people in each age group to turn in a completed bookmark will also receive a FREE T-SHIRT!

Children and Teens will also get to choose a FREE BOOK for every reading log completed. All ages may complete as many reading logs as they want throughout the summer reading program.

We are encouraging participants not only to read or listen to books but also make a new craft or recipe or explore a favorite place in our beautiful city or a new landmark in our wondrous state.

Admission is free to all Summer Reading events and no library card is required to participate in the reading programs. Prizes must be picked up in person at the library. Bookmarks are available starting on Friday, June 21st.
