What better way to finish the summer than with a celebration? The Louisville Free Public Library’s Summer Reading Finales take place this week at all library locations. Come enjoy magic shows, space-themed activities, snacks, storytelling, and grand prize giveaways!
If you haven’t finished Summer Reading yet, there’s still time: every child (newborn to 5th grade) and teen (6th to 12th grade) who completes Summer Reading by August 3 will receive either an alien pencil pouch (kids) or a tech organizer bag (teen) and passes to local attractions like the Kentucky Science Center, Louisville Bats Baseball, and more! Children and their families also have until August 4 to use their Cultural Pass, available for pick up at any library branch.
Summer Reading, presented by the Library Foundation, is absolutely FREE. Register your child online at www.LFPL.org/SummerReading, or fill out a paper form at your nearest branch now through August 3. To find a Finale at a branch near you, visit www.LFPL.org/events or call (502) 574-1620.
Check out the lineup of the free summer movies showing in July at the Iroquois Amphitheater! Gates open at 6 p.m. for concessions, and the first movie of the night begins at 7 p.m. for each listed date.
Tips for attending a Pop-Up Drop-Off:
Pop-Up Drop-Off events are extremely popular, and our staff strives to make the drive-through experience as efficient as possible. Here are seven tips for attending a Pop-Up Drop-Off:
-
Do not arrive early! All Pop-Up Drop-Off events start at 10 a.m. A line of vehicles causes traffic backups and prevents our equipment from entering.
-
Only bring sensitive documents to be shredded! The line for shredding is usually the longest. We have seen catalogs, paperback books, etc. being shredded, which is unnecessary and takes up valuable time.
-
Make sure no items are mixed with your documents! We've seen hammers, scissors, and toys mixed in with documents. These contaminants can break the shredding truck's equipment!
-
Try giving away usable items first! We see a LOT of decent items being trashed or recycled at our events. Some residents even offer these items to workers - staff is not allowed to keep items. Please try to donate or give away BEFORE coming to our waste and recycling event.
-
Loads of construction materials, lumber, and loose debris are NOT allowed! Take these loads to the Waste Reduction Center at 636 Meriwether Ave instead. Pop-Up Drop-Off events are very popular - please follow the rules so we can keep the line moving.
-
Separate your loads into the various categories! More can be recycled, and the line moves faster when you are ready to offload your items at each station.
-
Check-in staff will ask for your zip code and which types of items you brought. We track this information so we can keep improving our events. Most residents bring large items, electronics, and documents for shredding. Other categories include metal (or mostly metal) items, tires, yard waste, household recyclables, prescription medication, and shoes.
