Government

Sarasota County Libraries and Historical Resources will accept the Winter Reading Challenge, a national reading competition, for the third year starting in January.  Penguin Random House's U.S. children's publishing divisions, Random House Children's Books and Penguin Young Readers will sponsor the third annual Beanstack Winter Reading Challenge in support of public libraries and school systems throughout the United States. If the participating libraries reach this goal, the 2020 Winter Reading sponsors pledge to donate $50,000 in prizes, including author visits and new books, to be shared among the winners.
