Through this program, kids in rural areas can check out books and participate in Summer Reading through the mail. Any child or teen who attends school in Auxvasse, Hallsville, Harrisburg, Hatton, Holts Summit, Kingdom City, Mokane, New Bloomfield, Sturgeon or Williamsburg is eligible.

Tell us what books you’d like to start with or we’ll choose some for you. You can borrow up to three books and we'll mail them to you. When you’re done reading, you’ll send us the books back along with your request for more, all for free.

Books by Snail signup will begin again in May 2015.
