Summer Reading 2022: Thank you!

Written by web on October 8, 2022. Posted in Shelbyville Bedford Library, Summer Reading.

The Shelbyville-Bedford County Public Library was proud to present our Summer Reading Program this year!

SBCP Library registered almost 350 Summer Reading participants and had 2301 children, teens, and adults in attendance to in-person events over the weeks of Summer Reading. The 73 programs included performers, authors, crafts, STEAM activities, and Bookmobile. The Library would like to thank all of the children, teens, parents, grandparents, and anyone else who attended these programs! This year’s Summer Reading Program would not have been a success without your participation.

What’s New At The Library

2021 has come and gone… it was a good year for the Shelbyville—Bedford County Public Library.

Thankfully, amid several changes due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the library was able to remain open for the majority of the year. As with most other businesses we did have a few periods that it was necessary to close for a few days at a time, but thankfully those days were kept at a minimum.
