How does it work?  What do I need to do?

First, download and print the teen SRP log or pick one up at your local library. 
Click Here to download SRP log.

I’ve printed the log, what’s next?

First, read the instructions printed on the log.  Those instructions will explain the program in more detail.

For every bingo line you complete (max 5, one per visit), you have the option of being entered into the grand prize raffle or choosing a grab bag prize.  This gives you 5 opportunities to either enter the raffle or get a grab bag prize!!

If you read 5 books and complete the bingo grid, you will also receive
a packet of coupons to use at local shops and a free frapuccino
at Barnes and Nobles of Santa Barbara.

To win prizes, enter raffles, and report books read, you need to bring your log to any branch of the Santa Barbara Public Library System. For locations, click here.
