This year, Reading is SNOW much fun with the Walter King Hoover Winter Reading Challenge! This program is designed to encourage life-long reading habits. Registration for the Reading Program goes live on 1/25/2026, and you can begin submitting your reviews from February 1 to March 14.
All participants who submit 6 reviews will receive a Winter Reading Completion Prize, as well as 1 Grand Prize entry. For 1 additional entry into the Grand Prize drawing, read an additional 5 titles. The Grand Prize Reader will receive a gift card awarded by the Friends of Smyrna Library in addition to the entries into the grand prize drawing. There are also prizes for the Silver & Bronze Readers. Read six books in six consecutive weeks, and log your reading progress. Each book is worth 100 points; when you earn 600 points, you’ll receive a completion certificate you can print and share! Participants can register through ReadSquared by selecting the Program Title or emailing smyrnareadingprogram@rclstn.org. You can also pick up a review worksheet at the library and turn in your 6 hand-written reviews by 3/14/2026.
