Arlington Public Library’s Summer Reading theme is “Share the Love.” Visit the APL Summer Reading Page to download the Library App and participate in summer reading. You earn the chance for prizes, and the reading you do is also a fund raiser for the Arlington Food Assistance Center (AFAC). AFAC provides our neighbors in need with dignified access to free, supplemental groceries. The Friends of the Arlington Public Library (FOAL) will donate $1 to AFAC for each completed reading challenge.
