Fall in Love with Your County Library This January
The San Bernardino County Library (SBCL) is inviting residents of all ages to rediscover the joy of reading with its Love Your Library events, taking place throughout January 2026 at 18 SBCL locations.
The challenge is easy, and the rewards are real! Check out 15 items—stack up novels, cookbooks, audiobooks, and digital downloads—and earn a reward every time you hit the mark. Plus, each completed challenge scores you an entry into a prize drawing. The more you read, the more you win, and the more you’ll love everything your library has to offer during Love Your Library!
“Libraries are more than buildings filled with books — they are community hubs that inspire curiosity, creativity, and connection,” said SBCL Program Coordinator Elizabeth Williams. “Love Your Library is our way of saying thank you to our patrons while encouraging families, students, and readers of all ages to make the library part of their new year.”
Throughout January, participating library locations will host themed Love Your Library activities, displays, and programs highlighting library resources, services, and staff favorites. From children discovering their first favorite book to adults revisiting reading goals for the new year, the campaign is designed to be welcoming, fun, and accessible to everyone.
Spread the love—here’s where all the Love Your Library excitement is happening.
