Scarsdale Library Announces Summer Reading Challenges

As the weather warms up, the Scarsdale Public Library will open registration this Sunday, June 7, for their highly anticipated 2026 Summer Reading Programs. Prizes sponsored by the Friends of the Scarsdale Library are also awarded for participating. The theme for this year is Unearth A Story.

Each of the three challenges is based on age group: Children's Summer Reading, Teenstack 2026 (Grades 6 - 12), and Summer Reading for Adults. Every program starts on June 21st, with the children’s and adult’s programs ending on August 15th and the teens’ program ending on August 31th.

Children can partake in the library’s Summer Reading Bingo for babies and toddlers, PreK through 1st grade, and 2nd through 5th grade. Kids can claim a prize or even a book to keep depending on how much of the card they complete.

If teens read books, they can fill in bingo squares to gain tickets. Entering the tickets into a drawing gives them a chance to win one of four $50 ‘Dale Dollars cards that can be spent at 30+ local stores.

Adults can obtain a themed pin or keychain and earn points toward prizes by registering. They can also submit book reviews and attend Trivia, Puzzle Breakfast, and Paint Night for a greater chance of winning prizes.
