The benefits of summer reading are clear. National research from Dominican University finds that students who participate in summer reading programs score higher on reading tests at the beginning of the next school year than those who do not participate. Register your children at the Winnebago Public Library for Have Book - Will Travel beginning June 12th!

Family Fun, prizes, games, and more are on the itinerary for Have Book - Will Travel this summer!

The Winnebago Public Library is collecting worn-out U.S. flags to be properly disposed of in a Flag Retirement Ceremony next weekend at this year's Support Our Troops Rally. You can drop off your retired flag in the flag collection basket in the foyer anytime the library is open. We're doing our part to help you respect the Flag!

Are you looking for fun activities to do with your children or grandchildren this summer? Look no further than the library! A puppet show, a nature talk, and a train ride are just a few of the great events we have planned for this summer. Registration for this year's Summer Reading Program begins June 12th at 10:00 A.M.

WPL Board Meeting

7:00 p.m.

Did you find some old books you no longer read while doing spring cleaning this year? Why not donate them to the library? The Friends of the Library are having their annual "Book, Bake, and Bloom" sale this Friday and Saturday, and they need your help! Donations may be dropped off at the desk any time the library is open, and all donations to the library are tax-deductible. Proceeds from the book sale will go to fund special programs and improve library services.

(Please note that we do not accept the following items: Reader's Digest Condensed Books, encyclopedias, VHS or cassette tapes, water damaged items, and magazines older than 6 months.)
