Sign up and submit titles of any book you start reading on the day you register for the program and finish reading by Friday, August 11. For each title you submit, you will have a chance to win raffle prizes in our weekly drawings and at the Adult Summer Reading Club Wrap-Up Party on Wednesday, August 16.

We will kick-off the Summer with two very special events:

See a Readers’ Services Librarian on the 2nd floor to register for the Adult Summer Reading Club.  Registration begins on Tuesday, June 6.  You must register in person at the Readers’ Services Desk before submitting raffle tickets. The sooner you register, the more books you will have time to read. Please remember: you cannot backtrack your books. Only books you start reading from the day you register through August 11 can be submitted.

Registration is not required to attend events, so bring your friends!

We look forward to another great summer of fantastic books!

Readers’ Services Year-End Celebration and Author Visit

-Photo Credit: Robert Presutti

Tuesday, December 20 at 2 PM in Meeting Room B/C

 Join the Readers’ Services staff for a fun Year-End Celebration featuring       Long Island author Alyson Richman.

Ms. Richman is the author of six novels including the 2012 International bestseller The Lost Wife now being adapted to film. 

Copies of her latest novel The Velvet Hours will be sold by the Friends of the Library at the event.   

Inspired by the true account of an abandoned Parisian apartment, Alyson Richman brings to life Madame de Florian and Solange Beaugiron, the young woman forced to leave her fabled grandmother’s legacy behind to save all that she loved.

The Velvet Hours explores the unlikely relationship between two women who pursue freedom and independence during uncertain times, as Solange and Marthe’s stories unfold like velvet itself, each stitched with its own shadow     and light.

~ From the Publisher

Ms. Richman will discuss the writer’s life, as well as the creation of and inspiration behind her six novels.

Free event. 

No registration required. 

Light refreshments will be served.

Each attendee will receive a ticket to win a raffle prize. 

We have all of Alyson Richman’s novels currently available at the Library to borrow. Start reading one today!
