Read on #815RockfordDay!
The Rockford Public Library invites the community to come in on Thursday, August 15, and read for 8 minutes and 15 seconds.
The library will have areas in both the Adult and Children’s departments set up to make reading experiences comfortable. Once you’ve finished, the library will give you a button displaying the “Rockford” mural and celebrating that you have #READ815@RPL
The Rockford design was done by Victor Rivera and a mural of the design can be found at Ernie’s Midtown Pub.
Post a pic with your button and use the hashtag: #READ815@RPL and tag the library so we can promote you too!
