Unearth A Story 2026

Summer Reading

Unearth A Story

The Southern Oklahoma Library System's Summer Reading Program, offered from May to July each year, is something that moms, grandparents, and children look forward to with anticipation.

Whether learning about music, crafting, history, or simply reading books, the summer reading program enriches the lives of children in Southern Oklahoma each summer.

We would like to thank everyone who joined us for our "Unearth A Story" 2026 Summer Reading and logged your Summer Reading minutes using Reader Zone.

Summer Reading 2026 is Here!

Every summer we have a new theme, and we plan crafts, stories, book lists, fun learning, and games around that theme.

Kids and teens can sign up to participate, keep track of their reading, and earn rewards. Our goal is to keep kids learning and reading all year!
