Waterville Public Library

Level Up at Your Library with our 2025 Summer Reading Program!

Pre-registration opens on June 14th, with the reading challenges opening on June 21st!

Read with your best buddy, a new adventuring party, or together with your family. Enter the amount of time you spend reading. Meet the reading goal for your age bracket and earn prizes!

These challenges are designed for all ages and abilities!   

Sign up  through Beanstack!

1. Go to:  https://watervillelibrary.beanstack.org/
2. Create a user account and add reader accounts for each person participating.
3. Log minutes read to unlock electronic badges! 

Our challenges measure minutes spent reading or being read to. Read what you enjoy best: Books, e-books, audio books, magazines or newspapers all count!

Don’t have a computer or smart phone for logging into Beanstack? Paper logs are available.

Everyone who completes all three reading goals is automatically registered for a grand prize drawing in their age bracket, to be held at the end of the summer.   
Remember, you may repeat the challenge as many times as you can. You earn the prizes for the first three levels only once, but every time you make it through, you will earn EXTRA entries into the Grand Prize Drawing. Get in the game and Level Up at Your Library!
