Summer Reading Buzz 2014!
Prizegiving Ceremony for the Summer Reading Buzz 2014. Held in Deansgrange Library on Saturday 18th October. 3 winners were picked from each branch library. These 24 children were brought together in Deansgrange Library to celebrate and we also had an overall draw for fabulous prizes of a tablet, ipod touch and a digital camera. We had a huge response to this popular reading initiative this year. We had over 1,000 children sign up for the Summer Buzz and more than 15,000 items read over the Summer months. Well done to each and every child who partook! We are already looking forward to the Summer Buzz 2015!!

The Summer Reading Programme runs in public libraries across the country every July and August and is a hugely popular and successful reading event for children of all ages and abilities. Each child chooses the books they wish to read, keeps a record of their progress and gets recognition for each step along the way. At the end of the challenge, all children who have read the target number of books get a certificate of achievement at a special awards event.
