Yuma libraries kick off summer reading program to combat ‘summer slump’

YUMA,Ariz.(KYMA)-Yuma libraries have kicked off their summer reading program to combat “summer slump.”

The program’s theme this year is “Unearth a Story.” Readers of all ages are encouraged to pick up a new story, track how long they’ve been reading through an app, and have a chance to win prizes.

Klarissa Fausto with the Yuma County Library District said, “The summer reading program is happening now until July 18th. It's a perfect opportunity for people of all ages to come on in, grab a book and even sign up for our summer reading challenge.”
