Hit the road with Summer Reading Bingo 2026! 🚗📚

This year’s theme is Road Trip, and we’re inviting you to read your way through summer. From books set on the East Coast to stories involving diners, national parks, road trips, music, and more, there’s a square for every kind of reader.

How it works:
Between May 26 and August 21, read a book that matches one of the bingo squares.

Each book = 1 entry
Bingo = 2 extra entries
Blackout = 5 extra entries

No double dipping! Each book can only count for one square.

Need ideas? Follow along here and check the Libraries Blog all summer for recommendations.
