submitted by Laura Wohlgemuth, Manchester District Library Event Coordinator

Excitement for summer is building at the Manchester District Library! Community members eager to begin their reading adventure can take advantage of Summer Reading Program Early Registration, running June 5–17, 2026. Stop by the library, 912 City Road, to sign up early and receive a special early registration prize before the official summer fun begins. You do not need a library card to participate in the summer reading program!

Stop by the library or visit the event calendar for information about this and other great programs for all ages at the Manchester District Library (MDL). MDL regular hours are Monday–Thursday, 10am–8pm, Friday, 10am–6pm, and Saturday, 10am–2pm. The most up-to-date hours and the latest news are always available on the MDL website.
