Summer Reading Program – Paper Reading Log
The Summer Reading Program at the Santa Cruz Public Libraries will begin on June 1st.
How it works:
This year we will be using a program called Beanstack to keep track of Summer Reading Program participation. With Beanstack, you can log your reading minutes and activities online or with the Beanstack Tracker app on a smart phone or tablet. If you participated in our Summer Reading Program in any of the last four years, then you probably already have a Beanstack account. We will also be offering a paper reading log for those who would like to keep track of their reading offline. For a full set of Beanstack instructions, see the document “Program Instructions – English” on the Quick Links side bar menu.
If you need help creating a Beanstack account, remembering your Beanstack username and password, or if you would like staff to log your reading for you, call our TelInfo staff at 831-427-7713 or email eLibrary@santacruzpl.org.
