Game Boards
It’s easy to keep track of all your reading and activities online with Beanstack, but if you want something to stick onto the fridge, stop by any branch and grab an official game board or a traditional reading log. Want it sooner? Click the link below and download a game board today.
Library Scavenger Hunt
You're only minutes away from a community branch. Visit all the library locations (Clever, Nixa, Ozark and Sparta) to complete a special scavenger hunt and earn summer reading points.
Attend Library Events
There are more adventures to be had all summer long thanks to library events and activities. Attending events earns bonus points, which means a better chance of winning prizes!

Reading With Style
