All participants can register for Summer Reading online beginning May 12, 2023.
These links will send you to our quick and easy online registration page. From there, you can print a one-page reading log for each person you register. Register one person at a time. No printer? No problem. You can register for our Summer Reading Program and pick up a reading log in person at any of our open branch locations beginning June 3, 2023.
All of the great Summer Reading prizes, performers, and events are paid for with the generous support of the Friends of the Public Library, a non-profit 501(c)3 organization.
You can make a donation to support the Summer Reading Program.
You can pick up your own copy of our Special Events Guide at any local Public Library branch. There is no advance registration required to attend Children & Family Special Events. Other event categories, especially events for Tweens and Teens, DO require advance registration as we have limited supplies for our participants. Other Special event categories MAY require advance registration; please check your Special Event Guide for details, or ask at the branch holding the event.
Sometimes, we're faced with unforeseen circumstances beyond our control! Please check this website for any Special Event updates before you head over to the branch - we'll post the latest details here!
Step 1: Visit any branch of The Public Library Albuquerque-Bernalillo County to pick up a Branch Visit BINGO card. Limit one BINGO card per person. Play as individuals or together as a family.
Step 2: Take your Branch Visit BINGO card with you when you visit different branches and get it stamped by staff.
Step 3: For each 5-space, straight-line BINGO you score on your BINGO card (horizontal, vertical and/or diagonal only), you'll earn one entry into the System-wide Branch Visit BINGO prize drawing.
All Branch Visit BINGO entry forms will be entered into a System-wide prize drawing for a 4-pack of single-day, All-Day Ride Passes from Cliff's Amusement Park!
