**Akron-Summit County Public Library Launches Winter Reading Program**

Akron, Ohio — The Akron-Summit County Public Library (ASCPL) is encouraging residents to sign up for its Winter Reading program this season. The initiative motivates readers to explore books during the winter months, with the added incentive of winning prizes for their participation.

Library officials have issued a reminder to the community that there's still time to register and join. Whether readers explore fiction, nonfiction, or other genres over the break, their reading activity can count toward fun rewards.

More details about the program, along with the registration form, can be found on the library’s official website at [https://www.akronlibrary.org/winter-reading](https://www.akronlibrary.org/winter-reading).
