We're also delighted to be bringing the Summer Reading Program
to children throughout Victoria County. This free program
encourages kids to maintain their reading skills over the summer
by reading books and earning prizes. Kids can sign up on the
bookmobile, or at any of the Cape Breton Library's 13 branches.
Every child who completes eight library books by August 16 will
receive a prize, donated by local merchants, and will qualify
for two Provincial draws (for a bag of books or a Canadian Tire
gift certificate), and a regional draw (for a bicycle).
