Brain Freeze

The generous support of the Orrville Dairy Queen allows the library to offer a year-round "Brain Freeze" program for students in grades 5-8. A log of books read is kept at the Information Desk in the library for each student. As pages accumulate, they can be cashed in for coupons for cones, sundaes, or blizzards. Please call the library or check with the Information Desk for more details or to sign up.

Summer Reading for Teens

For students from any school district going into grades 7-12, materials that are checked out from the library during the summer reading program may be cashed in for "library bucks," which can then be used at an auction in August with tons of amazing prizes! Come by the library this summer to sign up and start earning your library bucks!

We also have summer reading for kids [13], summer reading for adults [14] and our year-round brain freeze program [15] for students in grades 5-8.
