We Set Sail June 14th

Thu, Jun 3, 2010 by Reference

Join Palos Verdes Library District’s

Adult Summer Reading Program

To travel with us, simply obtain a “passport” application at the Reference Desk at any branch of our library system, beginning June 14.

Then read from our wide selection of “destination” titles (click here) or any book you wish. The titles are linked to our catalog, so you can check availability and reserve books. For fiction and nonfiction specifically focused on the experience of immigrants to America, click here.

Bring your completed application to the Reference Desk when you finish your first book. For each additional book read, your passport will be stamped and you’ll receive an entry for a weekly prize drawing. Winners will be drawn each Thursday and notified by phone.

Participants are automatically entered into a grand prize drawing held September 25 at the Lisa See author event - don’t miss it!
