Bring the joy of reading to your community this summer

Public libraries play a vital role in keeping children engaged with reading during school breaks, and a well-organized summer reading program is one of the most effective ways to prevent the "summer slide" while making literacy fun. This Summer Reading Program Registration template is designed specifically for public libraries looking to streamline enrollment, set personalized reading goals, and track participation throughout the season.

Built with families in mind, this form captures everything you need: child details, age-appropriate reading targets, preferred genres, and prize selections—all in one friendly, accessible format. Whether your program serves preschoolers just starting their reading journey or middle schoolers looking for their next adventure, this template adapts to multiple age groups with ease.
