100 Books of Summer
Books can take us anywhere - what paths will you choose to read on this summer? The Conant Public Library challenges children and families to join us in the 100 Books of Summer Reading Challenge! Stop by the Children’s Room to pick up a list of 100 of our favorite children’s books and start checking them out. Read all 100, or mix and match with some of your own favorites (remember that listening to books also counts!), and turn in your completed list by August 11th to earn a prize and a special recognition at the library!
For more information, please call the Conant Public Library in Sterling at (978) 422-6409.

Take a look at the list of links below to place holds in the CW MARS catalog if needed. We will, however, have a limited number of each title already available for checkout at the library - no holds required. Check with us for availability.
