Starting June 8, visit Columbus Library, Saluda Library, or click here to sign up for the 2020 Summer Learning program with Polk County Public Libraries! Our learning incentive program runs for 10 weeks, until August 16.

Our youth program is open to those who are entering 12th grade next year or younger. When you sign up, you will receive a packet with a brag tag, learning goal bookmarks, and a list of learning goal ideas (download art, STEM, and health ideas and reading, writing, and community ideas). Each week, set and achieve two learning goals and visit the library for a new brag tag, an entry into our weekly prize raffle, and an entry into our grand prize raffles! If you are unable to make it in, you may email your weekly learning goals to jdickenson@polklibrary.org to be entered into the drawings.

Adults do not need to sign up, but will get a challenge card. Mark each box when you complete the challenge. For every five challenges you complete, you earn an entry into our grand prize raffles! If you are unable to make it in, you may email your completed challenges to jdickenson@polklibrary.org to be entered into the drawings.

Thanks to the Friends of the Polk County Public Libraries for sponsoring this program!
