We’re doing it! We could Go. All. The. Way.
Bedford has overthrown the reigning champion, Burlington, to qualify for the Final Four of the Minute Madness reading competition among Massachusetts libraries.
Keep logging those reading minutes as Bedford takes on Lunenburg this week in the semi-finals. The winning library team competes for the championship next week.
Reading minutes can be logged in Beanstack through Thursday at noon. Paper reading logs need to be turned in to the Bedford Library on Wednesday at noon to be counted this week.
With rain in the forecast, it’s a great weekend for reading! We can do this!
