About the Event
Designed for all ages, this year's summer reading program features the idea of
conservation! Conservation as a movement focuses on protecting species from
extinction, maintaining and restoring habitats, enhancing ecosystem services, and
protecting biological diversity. iREAD 2024: Read, Renew, Repeat encourages reading as a restorative
method of self-improvement and self-preservation.
Read: Not only is reading good for us and academically required, reading is pleasurable. Reading as a restorative method of self-conservation and selfcare is a focus for all ages of our program this summer.
Renew: This year, we hope to bring awareness to the many ways anyone of any age can participate in the conservation movement to help protect species from extinction, maintain and restore habitats, enhance ecosystem services, and help protect biological diversity.
Repeat: Why not read and renew again and again?!
