Do you like to read for some sweet, sweet library swag?

While the ²Ê¿â±¦µäapp Library doesn't do a formal summer reading program like many public libraries do, we do have an on-going annual reading challenge called

. It started in January and ends in December, so you've got a whole year to get a BINGO (or several!). Go ahead and get started this summer!


Are you a ²Ê¿â±¦µäapp faculty or staff member and want to join in with our current reading groups?

The Library will be launching our next for faculty and staff in June.

A reading circle consists of 4 meetings (1 hour per week for 4 weeks)-- this summer, we'll be reading .

This summer's faculty and staff book club (one meeting, one hour, in mid-July around the end of the 8 week term) is by TJ Klune.

Want to run your own summer reading group using our sets that isn't currently the College-wide option? Great! Contact Librarian Meredith Lewis (lewisma @ durhamtech.edu) to reserve and discuss for your group.


Want to select your own summer reading virtually?

We have a wide variety of print books at the Main and Orange County Campus Libraries and can register you for a library account on the spot with any photo ID. Search to find local holdings.
