Warm up your imagination and get your keyboards ready! This November, we're taking off on a Writing Marathon, available exclusively on Beanstack. Choose your own writing adventure with word-count goals including a 5k, 10k, 25k, and 50k, or complete any of our "Fun Run" activities.
Earn 5 badges total to complete your November Writing Marathon and earn your choice of a KCPL notebook and pen set or KCPL tote bag, while supplies last!
A reading challenge is a fun way to challenge yourself to read more, or to read books on a new topic that you may not have considered before! Beanstack allows readers to register for challenges available to their age group, log their reading, and track their progress.
Reading challenge themes range from our annual Summer Library Club to Mental Health Awareness Month. Sometimes we even host movie-watching or writing challenges. There’s something for everyone!
Create a Beanstack account and watch the library calendar for challenge announcements. When a challenge is available for your age group, register and track your progress as you go.
