The Winter Reading Challenge for Grownups
Jump start your reading habit and shake off the winter blues by challenging yourself to read five books in eleven weeks. Use our bingo cards to explore new genres, new authors, or re-discover old favorites.
Anchorage Public Library is teaming up with Zip Kombucha for a tasty collaboration. During the month of September, show your library card at the Zip Kombucha Tap Room and get 10% off your purchase. Buy the library's signature flavor, "To Chai For" and proceeds will go to support the library and be sure to join us for our “Book Tasting” event on September 11.
