Bathurst Library welcomes you to reading challenges throughout the year.

Beanstack is a free online service for residents of Bathurst and surrounding areas, that offers an innovative new way to connect readers of all ages with books, engaging reading activities and reading recommendations.

It includes book and activity logging, badges and registration for all members of the family under one account. You can earn digital badges by completing activities, logging books you have read, tracking reading time, attending programs, writing book reviews and more.

CBCA Reading Challenge:

The Children’s Book Council of Australia Book Week celebrates authors, illustrators, and readers (like you!) throughout Australia during the week of 22-28 this August. Join us as we celebrate this year’s theme, “Symphony of Stories.” Read books from CBCA’s book lists and log your reading to earn badges and go in the running for prizes!
