Summer Reading
The Huntsville-Madison County Public Library (HMCPL) is excited to announce its 2025 Summer Reading Program, "Color Our World," which will be held at all ten Library locations from May 27 to July 19. This year's theme, "Color Our World," celebrates art, creativity, and the myriad of ways in which art enriches our lives. So, join us for a summer reading adventure!
Check our quick reference guide for weekly storytime programs, but make sure to visit our events calendar for the latest information, including special Saturday programs at some of our locations.
Don't miss our Summer Reading Kickoff events, where every child and teen who attends will receive an Reading Log and other fun items!
How does the Summer Reading Program work?
Starting May 27, you can pick up a reading log at any of our locations or print one below. Color a section for each day that you read. Once you've completed your log and read x number of days, return your log to any loction by Saturday, July 19 to be entered into the final drawing to win cool prizes!
What counts as reading? Read with someone; Listen to an audiobook or have someone read to you; Read a magazine, book, or ebook; Read a graphic novel or comic book.
Some branches may also have small incentive prizes to give out all summer long. When turning in the Reading Log, please make sure that your contact information is complete and legible. If you have any questions about Summer Reading, please contact your local branch.
