Libraries sponsor Winter Reading Challenge

The Sussex County Library System (SCLS) invites readers to join its 2025 Winter Reading Challenge: For the Love of a Good Book.

The challenge requires no initial registration. Participants read books, then submit raffle tickets to qualify for prizes in February.

Residents of all ages may participate.

There will be one winner in each age group at every SCLS location - 18 winners in all.

Adults will qualify for Winter Reading Bundles: a SCLS blanket, portable cutlery set, lanyard and Let’s Eat $25 Gift Card in a canvas tote.

Teens ages 13 to 17 qualify for $25 Amazon Gift Cards while children up to 12 qualify for $25 Barnes and Noble Gift Cards.

Prize winners will be contacted in early March.

SCLS library cards are free to anyone who lives, works or attends school in Sussex County except Sparta, which has its own library.
