<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: x-large;">The theme of this year’s summer reading program is “Imagine Your Story”
and NBPL has imagined an exciting, new <i>virtual</i> reading program on Reader
Zone. Like our traditional summer reading program, you will report your reading
to enter weekly raffles. However, this year you will be able to easily track
and report your reading in Reader Zone --no trip to the library necessary!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The first 25 teens to sign up for summer
reading will receive a bundle containing <i>Imagine Your Story</i> swag,
instructions on setting up your Reader Zone account, and a book by Jen Calonita
to help you to get your summer reading started! <o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span>

will be distributed to the first 20+ patrons to register each week as supplies
