Writes of Passage: 30 Books that will change your summer 2014




In just a few days registration will be open for our new teen summer readers program!  The Orillia Public Library is challenging teens in grades 7-12 to collectively read 20,000 pages this summer.  We have brought in thirty exciting new teen books for you to check out and enjoy.  The more you read the more you can win!  For every 1,000 pages read we will be doing a draw for exciting prizes.  You can also earn points throughout the summer by participating in teen programs and submitting book reviews!  For every 25 points you earn your name will be submitted for more chances to win!

If you would like to listen to audio books, read magazines or re-read The Fault In Our Stars all summer long that's ok to!  Read what you want when you want this summer but keep in mind you will only earn ballots for reading one or more of the thirty books that are part of the program.

Click here for a full list of all 30 exciting books!

You can earn extra points by doing the following (25 pts  = 1 ballot):
  • Sign up for Teen SRC = 25 pts
  • Read a book off our great summer reading list = 50 pts
  • Submit a book review online = 50 pts
  • Attend a teen summer program = 50 pts
  • Complete a summer boredom buster in the teen section of the library = 25 pts
  • Like us on Facebook or Twitter = 25 pts (search Orillia Public Library Teens)
Whatever your taste in books we have something that is sure to please.  We have books that will scare you, make you laugh, help you to understand you, change the way you see the world, make you smile, and maybe make you cry.

Registration can be done online anytime starting Friday June 27th or in person on Thursday June 26th from 4:30-6pm only.
