Thanks to our pre-registration period, as of June 1, we had 3,882 people signed up for Summer Reading. For comparison, in 2019 we had 7,015 pre-registrations at this point. In 2018, It was about 6,000. So we're not quite recovered from the 2020 slump, but we're well on our way! We had 7,706 sign-ups TOTAL in 2020.

Each week EPS + OUT will be sending library staff an email with helpful Summer Reading updates/tips of the week, along with cute animal photos submitted from staff across the system! We will also post the same information on the Intranet for all staff to see. Feel free to reach out at anytime to let us know what information you need to help make Summer Reading as successful as possible. We are here to help and support!

Thank you for all that you do! And for all the podcast listeners out there, make sure to check out Oklahoma Today's Summer Reading Podcast with Emily Williams of EPS!  https://oktpodcast.podbean.com/  [1]
