“Express Yourself” Summer Reading Program for Teens, May 26 – July 25
Teens, ages 12 - 18, can win exciting prizes by participating in Phoenix Public Library’s “Express Yourself” summer reading program May 26 – July 25.
Beginning May 26, teens can register for the program online at phxlib.org/teenreading or pick up a book log at any Phoenix Public Library. The program is designed to keep teens reading during the summer and features instant and weekly prize drawings, and a grand prize drawing for an Xbox 360 or iPod Touch.
Last year, more than 12,000 teens participated in the program, a 17 percent increase from the previous year.
The “Express Yourself” reading program is sponsored by Wendy’s, 95.1 FM Latino Vibe and Harkins Theatres, with additional support from Cox Communications, Friends of the Phoenix Public Library, Perrona Megastore and Sonic.
Phoenix Public Library is a system of 14 branch libraries and the Burton Barr Central Library. For more information, call 602-262-4636 or visit phoenixpubliclibrary.org.
