Experience “Tails & Tales” at the Community Library of DeWitt & Jamesville. Our 2021 Summer Reading Program will run from June 28 to August 21. Patrons can log reading activity at the library or at home using READsquared, a reading program software (see below). We have programs for Early Literacy (ages 0-4), Children (Grades K-5), Teens (Grades 6-12) and Adults.

Children can win weekly prizes and redeem their points in READsquared towards themed raffle baskets, like Arts & Crafts and LEGO.

Teens can earn weekly prizes and will earn raffle tickets for every 30 points earned by logging their minutes read and by completing missions. Each raffle ticket earned is a chance to win prizes (like gift cards to LEGO and Barnes & Noble).

Adults can earn points by logging how much they read into READsquared. Every page is worth 1 point. More points give participants more entries toward winning a gift card from a local store. Participants can also earn digital badges and extra points for completing certain reading challenges. The adult summer reading program (for ages 18 & up) is designed to encourage life-long reading habits.

Once again, our Friends of the Community Library of DeWitt & Jamesville are generously sponsoring our quest entertainment programs like Unicorns: Break the Cafe, the Great & Powerful Dave’s LIVE Interactive Magic Show, the Dirtmeister’s Dragon and the Dino Detectives, the All American Dinosaur Show, and more.
