County Executive Douglas M. Duncan and Council President Isiah Leggett joined representatives from the Department of Public Library and Friends of the Library, plus students from Weller Road and Wheaton Woods elementary schools at special ceremonies. Summer Quest will run from June 17 through August 31. Children entering the first grade and up can collect a reading log, coupon sheet and a list of free library programs from their nearest branch or bookmobile inn the County Library System. Each child will set a personal reading goal for the summer and can read any book they choose. Throughout the summer, every library offers a variety of free programs, such as puppet shows, storytellers, music and science programs.
Children also collect stickers throughout the summer to add to their logs.
