Richmond Public Library is excited to launch our Summer Escapes! blog – Your place to connect with other teens and talk about books.  Open to Richmond, BC teens in grade 8-12, all you need to do to join is email us at teens@yourlibrary.ca with your name, age and gmail address.  We’ll then send out an invitation to the blog, and you can start reviewing and talking about books.  The more your review, the better your chances of winning.

Each week, starting in mid-July, and running till the end of August, we’ll be drawing names for prizes based on book reviews.  That’s not all, though – Not only are we giving away prizes each week for book reviews, we’re also holding several great contests, including a selfie scavenger hunt, a bookface photo contest, and a stop-motion animation contest.

A big thank you to all of our donors who gifted prizes and gift certificates to our program this year!
