Winter Reading Challenge 2022
We’re partnering with Lerner Publishing Group and Beanstack to bring you the 2022 Winter Reading Challenge. Resolve to read at least 20 minutes per day, 5 days a week between January 1 through March 31, 2022 for a total of 1,200 minutes of reading!
Keep track of your reading and complete fun activities on the Beanstack website or app (iOS or Android) for a chance to win exciting prizes! Activities and prizes are geared toward children (ages pre-reader to 12), teens (ages 13 to 17) and adults (ages 18 and up).
For program information and instructions on how to get started with Beanstack, click here.
The Read for a Better World program encourages readers of all ages to explore diversity, empathy, and action through literature. Lerner Publishing has provided access to 40 age-appropriate reading materials (about 10 per age group). The titles will be available until January 31st with no holds, borrowing limits, or restrictions. It's a perfect accompaniment to your digital/e-reading library!

Happy New Year and Happy Reading!
We are pleased to announce that we have installed Princh, a user-friendly way to print at the Sandwich Public Library.
You can use your own mobile device, laptop, or our public computers to print your documents. All you have to do is download the free Princh app from Google play or the App Store, and you are ready to print. You can also print from your laptop by visiting print.princh.com, and you can still use the library’s computers as well.
Princh also allows you to pay with your credit card (Mastercard and Visa), Paypal, or Pay at the Desk with cash or check. The printing prices are $0.50/page for black and white and $0.50/page for color.
