The name of the program says it all! Parents are challenged to read 1000 books to their children between the ages of 0 and 5. Each family receives a log (several options to choose from) to keep track of the books read. Small prizes, such as stickers and coloring pages, are awarded at each 50-book milestone. Progress is tracked inside the library with a fox named for the participating child. The fox will progress along the path concurrently with the child's reading milestones! At 500 books, kids receive a free picture book. At the end of the program, the child receives a shirt with our 1000 Books logo on it. Stop by Muhlenberg Community Library to register your little ones and get started!

MCL is pleased to announce the reopening of our jewelry case for the holiday shopping season! This is a great opportunity for children looking for a Secret Santa shopping experience.
Each piece of jewelry is on sale for just $1 each.
Proceeds from these sales benefit the library. The jewelry case is open for anyone to shop during regular library operating hours.
