>> We are once again super busy this summer at the Newberg Public Library! This summer we've registered over 2,200 people for the Summer Reading Program, mostly youth, and we still have four weeks left in the program. All children have received a free book to keep, and we have tailored our program to strongly encourage sustaining a reading habit throughout the summer. Our program is heavily supported by the Ready to Read program through the State of Oregon.
