Have you found yourself reading more now that you're practicing social distancing and isolation? Then, this contest is for you! 

In our Virtual Reading Contest you can win a local prize package which includes a copy of Glennon Doyle’s Untamed plus $20 gift cards to each of these local businesses: Swirls, Station Coffee Co., McBrides Bakery, Skinny’s Smokehouse, and Medicine Hat Brew Co.

The contest will remain open until the library officially reopens to the public, at which point we will draw one lucky winner.
