Read with Schaumburg Library!

Our 2024 Summer Challenge: Read, Renew, Repeat is under way through Aug. 1. Now is a great time to sign up!

We use Beanstack to track all our reading programs. First time using Beanstack? Watch a short video to see how it works. Have you participated in a past Winter or Summer Challenge? You can use your same log in information. (Hint: Your username is your email address or phone number.)

Kids (ages 0 to 11): Earn the first four badges to win your prize of a book. You'll receive bonus prizes for each additional badge you earn.

Teens (ages 12 to 19) and adults: Track each day you read, up to 35 days, earning a badge for every 5 days you read. Reading counts whether it's 5 minutes or 105 minutes. All reading counts — print books, eBooks, audiobooks, graphic novels, webcomics, scholarly articles, you name it! Teens get a free book just for registering.
