Team JKPL\u2019s Bookmobile encourages everyone from infants, toddlers, and preschoolers to children, teens, and adults to accomplish reading goals and continue learning throughout the summer. The Bookmobile will be conducting JKPL\u2019s free Summer Reading Program from 9:30am. to 11:30am at the following sites:<\/p>\n<p>Tanapag Youth Center from July 10 to July 12, 2024<\/p>\n<p>Carolinian Utt\/Pavillion from July 17 to July 19, 2024<\/p>\n<p>Kagman Community Center from July 24 to July 26, 2024<\/p>\n<p>Fernando M. Benavente Memorial Library (San Antonio) from July 30, July 31, and Aug. 2, 2024<\/p>\n<p>The public is invited to register for the Joeten-Kiyu Public Library\u2019s Bookmobile Summer Reading Program for Early Literacy, children, teens, and adults during library hours of operation from May 14, 2024, to May 31, 2024. Seating is limited and registrants must have a valid library card with no library fines.<\/p>\n<p>The Joeten-Kiyu Public Library has provided free summer reading programs to the CNMI community for more than 20 years. The theme this year, \u201cAdventures Begin at Your Library,\u201d invites you to take an adventure in your library through activities, programs, and all kinds of books. By joining the fun, you\u2019ll earn prizes, and connect with others through the power of stories.<\/p>\n<p>The JKPL is a member of the Collaborative Summer Library Program and partners with various community donors, sponsors, and agencies (private\/public) to promote literacy during the summer. Studies have shown that during the summer, children and teens who aren\u2019t reading or participating in other learning activities can lose up to two months of academic skills achieved during the school year. Participating in the Summer Reading program can help students avoid the \u201csummer slide.\u201d Additionally, children who see their parents and other adults in their lives reading tend to read more and build healthy reading habits.<\/p>\n<p>Please enjoy your public library\u2019s free resources by visiting our website at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cnmilib.org\" target=\"_blank\">www.cnmilib.org<\/a> like\/follow JKPL\u2019s Facebook page @joetenkiyupubliclibrary, Instagram @joetenkiyupubliclibrary, TikTok @jkpl670, Twitter @JoetenKiyu, and YouTube: joeten kiyu public library or visit our website www.cnmilib.org to see the progress and programs JKPL has worked so hard to offer for our community.
