Hear ye, hear ye! It’s time to embark on a reading revolution! 

Our Summer Reading Program will officially kick off this weekend and for 2026, the Edison Public Library is celebrating our country’s 250th anniversary with a 10-week program centered around the theme “Reading is Revolutionary.” 
 
On Saturday, June 20, patrons of all ages can join us for a spirited kick-off taking place at the Main Library at 10:00am, the Clara Barton Branch at 11:00am, and the North Edison Temporary Location at noon. At each branch, attendees will experience the sounds of our ancestors with a live, interactive performance of early American music by musician Jim Gaven. Patrons will also have the opportunity to try their hand at traditional colonial crafts as well as celebrate our country’s independence with a cool treat from the ice cream truck.

This fun and free family-oriented event centered around history and high spirits is the perfect way to declare your right to read this summer!

ACCESS

Reading to your child has been scientifically shown to have numerous benefits, and the 1,000 Books Before Kindergarten was designed to incentivize parents to give their children a head start.
 
Signing up for 1,000 Books Before Kindergarten is easy to do through our Beanstack program, which also allows you to track the books you’ve read. For every 100 books, parents can earn a virtual badge and also claim a prize from their local Edison Public Library branch.
 
For more information or to collect your welcome package for joining, stop into any EPL branch.
 
1,000 Books Before Kindergarten is proudly sponsored by the Friends of the Edison Public Library.
