Library outlines summer reading plans, author appearances and closing events
Summary
Staff previewed the library's summer reading program, "Color Your World," with sign-ups open, branch-specific sign-up methods, author appearances at opening events, and closing celebrations planned for July 29. Roosevelt will not require daily reading entries this year; Duchesne will hold its closing at Arroyd Park.
Library staff presented details of the 2025 summer reading program, themed "Color Your World," including sign-up methods, event dates, author appearances and closing celebrations.
Staff said sign-ups are already open at both branches. Duchesne uses a digital sign-up on the library website and Roosevelt is using the reader's app again; Roosevelt staff decided not to require daily reading entries this year and will use total minutes instead to reduce burden on patrons. Staff noted a program effort to bring six authors to meet patrons during larger summer events rather than separate small panels.
Key dates: Duchesne's summer opener is July 27 with crafts and activities at the branch; both branches will hold simultaneous closing parties on July 29 (Duchesne's planned at Arroyd Park; Roosevelt's closing tied to the aquatic center for program completers). Staff said additional smaller events will run throughout the summer.
Ending
Staff said the program will proceed as planned and will share event details publicly; board members did not take formal action.
