THE SUMMER READING PROGRAM STARTS NEXT WEEK!
Good Saturday young Pomonans!! It's been awhile since I've blogged because google and blogger have changed things and it's taken me longer than I care to admit to catch up!
Our Summer Reading Program starts Monday June 4, 2012!
That's a week from Monday! Our theme for this year is:
Dream Big: Read! It's really simple. All you do is come in and sign up. We give you a reading log to help you track the hours you read. When you have read for five hours, come in and show us your tracker that one of your parents have signed. Then we give you a prize! Is that great or what?? We give out prizes for every 5 hours read up to 20 hours!
Reading Buddies also begins June 4, 2012. To participate in this program you must come in to the library to sign up. Fill out an application and we will put you with either a high school or college student to practice reading for 30 minutes. The hours for this program are: Monday and Tuesday 1-4pm. Wednesday 1-3pm. Come in anytime during those hours and you can practice your reading with an older student.
Teens, we have a program for you! The theme is: Own the Night. Read and record your five hours on your reading log to earn special prizes and entries in our Grand Prize Drawing! You also can participate in our Reading Buddies program. Sign up at the Children's desk to help a young child read!
Adults, we haven't forgotten you. The Adult Reading Program also begins June 4, 2012. Please go to or call our Reference Desk (909) 620-2043 ext. 2701 for details.
See you here at the Pomona Public Library June 4 - July 25, 2012 for all of our Summer Reading Programs for all ages!

Answer: It gets wet!
Good Saturday, young Pomonans! We had a GREAT time at the 46th Annual Laura Ingalls Wilder Sociable. Six students from the Ranch Hills Elementary 4th grade class performed a Reader's Theater of one of Laura's Stories. Then we had this GREAT band called the Whirled Peas Band. They were fantastic! They sang and danced and played instruments that the Ingalls would have used. For instance a banjo, fiddle, guitar and flute! They even taught us a dance!Thank you to the Whirled Peas Band for bringing Laura's life to us in Pomona, California!
