Beanstack Challenge

Visit the Library to register and learn more.

Beanstack allows library users to take part in reading challenges.  Some challenges are linked to library programs, some have themes of their own, and some are just for the love of reading!  Many challenges offer prizes for users that complete them but some just encourage readers try something new.
