During months of July & August
Summer Stars 2022
In library branches throughout the
county
Join the reading adventure at your library! Be part of the Summer
Stars Reading Adventure and discover the joy of reading for pleasure.
We want every child in Clare to read as many books as they can during
the summer holidays.
Sign up at any of our libraries and you will get your own Summer
Stars Reading Card to keep track of your progress. Every time you
show us your progress we will give you a reward. Everyone that takes
part will get an official Summer Stars Certificate in September.
You can read books borrowed from our libraries or from our e-Books
and e-Audiobooks app BorrowBox. It’s all free, and all you
need is a library card!
We will also have lots of FREE fun activities in our libraries and
on our social media channels all summer long. There will be storytimes,
book clubs, craft sessions and workshops.
Visit Summer
Stars 2022 for details of events in each library branch.
