Summer Reading

SUMMER READING 

 June 26 through Aug. 21  |  Unearth a Story at APL! 

 Visit any branch to sign up for Summer Reading 2026! The challenge is open to all ages. 

 It’s fun and easy to participate: 

• Register at any APL branch — or online — and pick up a paper tracker* 

• Read whatever you want, track your reading progress, and complete four activities.

• Return your completed reading tracker and pick up a raffle ticket for a chance to win a prize. Or, you can get a book instead of a raffle ticket. 

*Online option for adults: You can participate via The Story Graph, an online resource that tracks your reading, helps you select your next read, and connects you to friends. Join APL’s Summer Reading StoryGraph book club. You can use the StoryGraph website or app, both of which are free. 

We also encourage you to visit the library for wonderful programs all summer long! 

 Any questions about Summer Reading? Ask at a branch or email albanyreads@albanypubliclibrary.org 

 Happy reading, everyone!
