Reading Rules!!

Here is a link to the form you need to bring to the Library to register for Reading Rules!! and get your bag of swag and free books - first come, first serve!

And here are the rules:

Reading Rules!!!!

For 7th grade to 12th grade. Clyde Public Library, 2015.

Reach 500 points to participate in the Lock­In
at the Library Friday, July 31, 2015. (More
information and hours T.B.A.)

How to reach 500 points? Read 500 pages!*
These must be books, fiction or non, that you are
reading for the first time this summer, starting
June 4. For our manga/comic readers, divide the
pages by 5. (You get a point for every 5 pages
you read.) For our audiobook “readers”: go to
Amazon or Barnes and Noble online and look up
your book. Use the number of pages listed
(usually in the statistics section).

Keep track of the books you read on the next sheet. When you have reached 500
pages, you can keep going (no prizes involved, just the knowledge that you are The
Reader of the Summer!) Point records must be turned in at the Library by 5 p.m.
July 24 for you to be eligible to attend the Lock­In.

You can get points by recommending a book that you
read previous to this summer and really enjoyed using
our Thumbs Up Bookmarks. There is a sheet of 5
bookmarks ­ you get 20 points each ­ only five
bookmarks per person ­ cut them out, write why you
liked the book, then place the bookmark IN the book
on the shelf here at the library. Keep track of the books
you recommend on the next sheet.

*You can get points other ways, too: participate in
some of the activities at SPLAT (Thursdays from 3 to
4:30), or participate in these “extras”: 1. Learn knitting, etc. at Knifty Knitters. 2. Be part
of the Thieving Forest Book Discussion and Skype with Author. 3. Participate in the
July Cookbook Club, either alone or with a parental unit. 4. Design or find a 3D object
and print it (no printing charges for you). 5. Write script for the robot and get it to
‘perform’ it. 6. Create your own ‘extra’ and negotiate points with Jill.
