Reading Buddies Winter 2026 Session is Open!
Applications are due January 5 at 5 PM.

What is Reading Buddies?

📕 Reading Buddies pairs teenage volunteers ages 13-17 (Big Buddies) with 1st, 2nd, and 3rd grade students (Little Buddies).

📗 The Buddies meet for an hour every week of the session. They read together then do fun reading-related activities.

📘 Reading Buddies helps boost young readers' skills and gets kids excited about reading and the library. It is not a tutoring service.

The results are in!

This summer, an incredible 3,738 readers of all ages joined the challenge! Children, teens, and adults came together to log an astounding 129,300 days of reading – that's a 19% jump from last year.

Thank you to our generous sponsors who supported this year’s Summer Reading Challenge!

The Louisville Public Library's Summer Reading Challenge stands as a testament to what can be achieved when a community comes together around the shared value of reading, creating lasting memories, and fostering a strong connection to our community.

The annual Louisville Public Library Summer Reading Challenge is just around the corner and we are looking for SPONSORS!

https://www.louisville-library.org/news-events/what-s-happening/summer-reading/becoming-a-sponsor

We are a community of readers of all ages, and engaging them through Summer Reading is one of our largest and most meaningful projects. Though serving all readers is important, our primary purpose is to keep children reading for fun through the summer to help them maintain reading levels and slow the “summer slide” by encouraging reading every day. We could not offer such a successful program without the generosity of local sponsors.

Register your business by Friday, May 9th to participate in this beloved tradition!
