Welcome to our Blog
This blog has been created for the Joplin Public Library to compete in the Missouri Book Challenge starting January 1, 2011. You will earn points for each book read. To get credit for reading a book you must post an entry about your book. It must include your name, the title, author, # of pages, and a short entry. We will have different categories to earn bonus points, such as reading books from the ALA reading lists, Newberry Award winners, and random subjects to be listed at my discretion ;-). You can earn additional points by completing challenges or other goals that will appear throughout the year. This is so much more than a race...your participation makes you eligible for drawings throughout the year. Let's show those other libraries what makes the staff at JPL so great!!!

Don't feel like you don't have a chance if you don't read a ton each month. If you post at least one title, you will get an entry into a drawing that has entries limited to one per person. So you have as much a chance of winning a prize as the person who posted 50 titles that month. Posting more will get you better chances in other drawing also that month, but at least try to post 1 a month to win.
