There’s still plenty of time to participate in Summer Reading @ the Fond du Lac Public Library. Readers of all ages can tally their time with books, magazines, audiobooks and more for great rewards. Sign-up takes just minutes at fdlpl.org/summer2020 or at any library service desk.

Due to the pandemic and the library’s dedication to keeping the community and staff safe, all of the library’s summer programming is virtual or outdoors. The Main Library at 32 Sheboygan St. will be closed Saturday, July 4, in observance of Independence Day.
