NORWAY — This summer Norway Memorial Library’s reading program is online using Beanstack. Access is through the Beanstack app or the Beanstack website located at https://norway.beanstack.org/reader365.
Users will create a profile, register each reader for the summer reading challenge that corresponds with their age, and then start logging their reading minutes and activities. There are challenges for children, teens, and adults.
Log minutes of reading and complete activities to earn badges and prizes. To track books read, users may scan a book’s barcode or search by title, author, or ISBN number.
Beanstack allows readers to view stats, streaks, and averages for their reading. This free service is supported by the Maine State Library and Institute for Museum and Library Services (IMLS) using CARES act funds.
Virtual summer programming replaces in-person programs this year. For more information about the Beanstack app or accessing online children’s programs, please contact children’s librarian, Annika, at 743-5309 x 4 or visit the library at 258 Main Street, Norway, Maine.
Comments are not available on this story. Read more about why we allow commenting on some stories and not on others.
We believe it's important to offer commenting on certain stories as a benefit to our readers. At its best, our comments sections can be a productive platform for readers to engage with our journalism, offer thoughts on coverage and issues, and drive conversation in a respectful, solutions-based way. It's a form of open discourse that can be useful to our community, public officials, journalists and others.
We do not enable comments on everything — exceptions include most crime stories, and coverage involving personal tragedy or sensitive issues that invite personal attacks instead of thoughtful discussion.
You can read more here about our commenting policy and terms of use. More information is also found on our FAQs.
