Students! Parents! Teachers! Share your experience of reading with someone special for 30 minutes a day for 30 days and you could be chosen to win a Barnes and Noble Nook or a $25 Barnes and Noble gift card. Here's How: 1. Download a Reading Log to track your progress, and find a local library calendar to locate fun reading events near you. You can also pick one up from your school or public library. 2. On March 2, start reading (parent to child, child to parent, teacher/librarian to students or read to yourself) for 30 minutes every day through March 31. 3. Post your favorite reading experience as a comment, photo or video or email to wbusse@mseanea.org between March 2-April 1. Two winners will be chosen by random drawing and announced on April 4. There are no age limitations, although children under 13 must have parental consent.

The 30/30 Video

The beautiful new Calvert County Library in Prince Frederick was the backdrop for MSEA's Read 30 Minutes for 30 Days video. The video features students and families making the most out of a wintery Saturday morning visit to their public library. Check out the behind--the-scenes photos!
