Summer Reading

The library’s Summer Reading program is one of the great success stories for the difference private funding makes. In 1997, when The Library Foundation began providing private support to Summer Reading, less than 5,300 children participated. In 2011, 98,000 babies, kids and teens participated and even more are expected to participate this summer! Summer Reading turns 100 in 2012 and is Oregon’s largest reading program for children. It is also one of the busiest in the nation.
