Visit the circulation desk to collect your prizes.
Guidelines for Success:
Sign up online with a valid library card and PIN number. (If you do not have a PIN number, come to the library mid-level circulation desk to get one.)
We want to know you and we want you to know us, so please come to the library in person to choose books and collect prizes.
All but 1 book must come from the Groton Public Library. Young adults can read any books from the Young Adult and Adult sections, including unabridged audiobooks. However, magazines and some graphic novels (cartoon books) do not count towards prizes. Books from the Children’s Room that are also found in YA count as well.
Need help finding fun and interesting books? Check the YA Idea Book or ask a librarian at the circulation desk if you need suggestions on what to read.
Challenge yourself based on your own reading abilities.
You must be in good standing with the library to collect prizes--NO OVERDUE ITEMS AND NO FINES. You will be unable to record titles or collect prizes if your account needs attention.
