This year the Summer Reading Challenge has gone online to allow everyone to take part, even if they can’t get to their local library. As we have been able to reopen Blackfen Community Library we would love to see you in person to borrow books as part of the Summer Reading Challenge. We will also have some fun activities for you to take home. And there’s a prize for everyone who completes the Summer Reading Challenge. Plus you’ll be entered into a prize draw!

If you’re able to, you are welcome to visit us at Blackfen Community Library every Tuesday and Thursday from 10am to 3pm. You can browse our books and select new ones to take home to help you complete the Summer Reading Challenge. Find out about visiting Blackfen Community Library with social distancing.
Fun activities to try at home

Simply ask for a pack at the front desk.Once you’ve made your craft, don’t forget to share your photos (with parental permission) on social media and tag Blackfen Community Library so we can share too.
