You probably haven't had the chance to collect many stamps in your passport recently, but Thomas Ford has got you covered. Sign up for our Summer Reading Program, then let the adventure begin. You'll get a raffle entry for every book you read, a participation prize when you hit 5 books, and bonus raffle entries for visiting different continents or regions as you read.

The Adult Summer Reading Program runs from June 1-August 16. Adults 18 and over can register anytime starting June 1. All books logged and tickets earned through August 16 will be eligible for our prize raffle. https://fordlibrary.readsquared.com/ (You can sign your kids up for virtual Summer Reading Programs from that link, too.)

Beginning June 1, library building hours will be extended to:
Monday-Thursday, 9:30am-9pm
Friday and Saturday, 9:30am-5pm
Sunday, closed
