BaNES Libraries Adult Reading Challenge

This summer, we’re challenging adults to get reading!

All you need to do is collect your reading card and read two library books. We’ll give you a stamp in your card for each book and once you’ve collected two stamps, hand your card back to us and we’ll enter you into the prize draw.

Entrants must be aged 13+ (under 18s need parent/carer permission) and must be a member of B&NES Libraries.

We’ll let you know if you’re the lucky winner by 30 September 2024!
