What is the Summer Reading Club?
The Summer Reading Club is a FREE school holiday program with activities designed especially for children and young people.
Public libraries across Australia invite children/teens and families to join the Summer Reading Club, which is led by State Library of Queensland and in partnership with ALIA. The 2015 Summer Reading Club: Lost Worlds will officially run from Tuesday, 1 December 2015 to Thursday, 31 January 2016.
My Reading List
Are you one of the many libraries that will run a Summer Reading Club this year? Are you looking for a more creative way to track reading than the traditional paper-based reading logs you ask your participants to complete?
Why not use the 'My Reading List' platform to run your reading club?
How It Works
Our tools will allow you to set up your library reading club program, complete with prizes/awards management, mediated reviews, badges and certificate printing, in a few simple clicks!
Ask participants to sign up to your program, and you're off! Using 'My Reading List', kids and young people will be able to log books read directly, complete book reviews, read reviews by their peers, collect badges and print summary reports / certificates.
Your participants will have fun and benefit from all the built-in 'My Reading List' features, and your library service will benefit with centralised collection of library evaluation data i.e. books read, participants registered etc.
A new feature for 2015 allows for multiple family members to join using the one email account.
