Warm Up with Winter Reading
Make the chilly months fly by with a great book! Curl up, get cozy, and let the pages keep you warm during our Winter Reading Challenge for adults.
Submit Book Reviews & Enter to Win

Share your reading this winter—submit book reviews in person or online through Beanstack. You’ll receive a book-themed prize with your first review. Every review you submit enters you into our end-of-February drawing for a chance to win one of ten book bundles, packed in a Foundation tote. The more you read and share, the better your chances of winning!
Read Bags
Warm up with a Read Bag—a curated collection of three librarian-selected books centered on a unique theme. Choose from Historical Fiction, Let’s Eat, Minnesota Authors, Page-Turning Thrillers, and more. Check out the books and return the bag to the Info Desk for refilling. Perfect for readers who want a surprise, are short on browsing time, or just want to try something new.
