Additional materials are easily available through the MORE online catalog, which allows you to search for, reserve, and renew library items, from any computer connected to the Internet!

What's New @ Your Library?

We're gearing up for the Summer Reading Program.  Be Creative @ Your Library is the 2009 theme and we have lots of great creative activities and events for you.  All ages are invited to register and participate by reading, attending activities and events and adding to our Summer Reading Infinite Playlist with your reading recommendations.

Who can participate?

Children, Teens and Adults can register, keep track of reading hours and win prizes.  Younger children can participate in the Read-to-Me Program, where they keep track of the hours they are read to.

3-1/2 hours of reading (or being read to) earns you a FREE BOOK when you turn in your Reading Record in August.  Each registered SRP patron can win up to 3 free books.  Readers with 11 or more hours of reading (or being read to) become SUPER READERS and are eligible to enter our Top Ten Super Readers prize drawing.

How can I participate?

• Come to the library, fill out a registration form and get your SRP Starter Kit.
• Keep track of hours spent reading, or being read to, on your Reading Record.  Reading Records must be turned in by September 1 to be eligible for prizes. 
• Attend Summer Reading Program events and activities at the Prescott Library.
• Add the name of a book or magazine your read to our Summer Reading Infinite Playlist by filling out a CD cover and bringing it to the library.  We'll help you attach the CD cover to a CD and then we'll hang it in the library.  Each registered patron gets 4 CD covers in his or her Starter Kit.  Additional CD covers are available from the circulation desk at the library.
