Baker's Book Club Encourages Kids to Read for Rewards

The San Bernardino County Library is pleased to announce continued partnership with Baker’s Drive Thru to help promote reading during the Baker’s Book Club reading for rewards program. The Baker’s Book Club, offered exclusively through the San Bernardino County Library system, encourages children and teens to read for rewards through Nov. 21. To participate in the Book Club, visit any of the 32 San Bernardino County Branch Libraries and sign up. Participants must be ages four to 17 and a parent or guardian will need to sign to acknowledge a student’s reading progress. Participants may reach three levels of reading goals by reading and logging the number of pages read during the rewards program. Each reading goal met is paired with a reward provided by Baker’s Drive Thru such as certificates for free hand-dipped real ice cream milkshakes, bean burritos, single Baker burger, fries and more. Every child and teenager who reaches all three levels of reading goals will be entered into an opportunity drawing for a chance to win a Samsung Galaxy Tablet, also provided by Baker’s Drive Thru. In support of the Countywide Vision’s Vision2Read initiative, this program will help improve literacy among children ages four to 17, by inspiring an excitement to read, providing achievable goals and encouraging a reading routine at home. The San Bernardino County Library System is a dynamic network of 32 branch libraries that serves a diverse population over a vast geographic area. The County Library system strives to provide equal access to information, technology, programs, and services for all the people who call San Bernardino County home. The library plays a key role in the achievement of the Countywide Vision, by contributing to educational, cultural, and historical development of our County community. For more information on the San Bernardino County Library system, please visit http://www.sbclib.org/or call (909) 387-2220.
