Volusia County Public Libraries will offer a variety of programming for teenagers this summer.

This summer’s reading challenge, “All Together Now,” will be held from June 5 through Aug. 11. Teens can track their summer reading online with a link provided when they register for the challenge.

Those who read at least four days a week throughout the summer will earn prizes from the library. Registration for the challenge will begin May 28 at volusialibrary.org/slp.

A lineup of other teen programs, from hands-on maker activities to special presentations, will also be available. Teens and guardians can check their local branch’s calendar for a full schedule.

Select library locations will offer breakfast and/or lunch for children 18 and under throughout the summer, beginning June 5. Feeding locations, days and times will be published later this month at volusia.org/summerfood.

New for this summer, teens can stop by any library branch to pick up a free Teen Summer Activity Booklet. With a library card and online account, teens can download free books, magazines, audiobooks, music, movies and more on the library’s website.
