Summer Reading

Sign up at the library and pick up your Reading Log. Keep track of the books you read this summer. Turn in your Reading Log in mid-August and receive a gift certificate to World Eye Bookstore. Heath Elementary School students can also use this Reading Log for the school's summer reading program. We will photocopy your completed Reading Log and send it to the school.

The Summer Reading and Craft program is supported in part by

  • a grant from the Heath Cultural Council, a local agency supported by the Massachusetts Cultural Council, a state agency.
  • the Friends of the Heath Free Public Library.
  • the Massachusetts Regional Library Systems, the Massachusetts Board of Library Commissioners and the Boston Bruins, with funding from the Institute of Museums and Library Services, an independent federal agency that grows and sustains a Nation of Learners because lifelong learning is critical to success.
