Here are a few tips for folks who may not have played online trivia like this before.
This event will run using Zoom, as well as the Kahoot trivia platform. We recommend
having Zoom opened on a laptop or desktop computer if possible, although a mobile
device will work. Kahoot can then be opened on the same desktop device (in another
tab or window) or on another mobile device.
The questions will appear to you on the Zoom screen and you will then select and
submit your answers on Kahoot. Points are awarded for each question your family
answers correctly with additional points given depending on how quickly you answer-
the faster the better!
We ask that you please keep your microphone muted unless you have a question or
comment to share. Too much background noise makes it difficult for others to hear the
presenters!
Please contact us at hplsummerprogram@gmail.com if you have any questions. We will also be
available in the Zoom meet found at the link below a few minutes before the event if
you need help getting started.
Most of all make sure to have fun!

This summer the library will once again be taking part in the TD Summer Reading Program!
This program was created to help combat the ‘summer slide’. A regression in academic proficiency that can occur due to kids being out of school and away from any formal education over the summer months. It is a super fun way to keep kids motivated and engage your children or grandchildren in reading.
There are print materials available for pick up at the Library, as well as a website for children to access. These are reading log books, stickers and access codes. The materials help support fun, engaging learning throughout the summer with different challenges, goal setting, jokes, games, and access to free e-books with no holds or waiting.
Each week your child can check in, to update us on how their reading went that week. By checking in, they will be entered into prize draws and can add their name to our visual display of accomplishment in the library windows!
Check out the TD Summer Reading StoryWalk™ at the Hanover Heritage Square with your family starting Monday July 19th!
