The 2026 Summer Reading Kickoff Lineup is Here!

It’s that time of year again when each library branch hosts their own special event to celebrate the beginning of Summer Reading and the opening of Summer Reading Registration

From sidewalk chalk, lawn games, reptiles, frozen treats, and more, there’s no shortage of fun activities to get you and your family pumped for another great summer with the Jefferson-Madison Regional Library. Other activities (depending on the kickoff event you attend) include live music, face painting, balloon animals, snacks, games, and visits from the bookmobile!

While you visit, be sure to sign up for the Summer Reading Challenge and snag your own free, limited edition canvas tote bag!
