Summer Reading is almost Here!


Hey all!

It's officially summer reading season here at the Essex Library. School is almost out and summer is upon us. Woo hoo!

We've got a ton of great YA programs to look forward to, including a reading program that will earn you a feature on our blog and a gift certificate to Sweet P's Ice Cream. We're also offering a free all day ride pass to Quassy Amusement Park for anyone who reads three books this summer.

Here's a sneak peek into June, July and August...
