The March Into Reading program kicks off in March! Download the booklet or get a copy in-person at a @Spartanburg County Public Libraries branch or Cowpens National Battlefield! The booklet contains a suggested reading list for all ages compiled by librarians, bookmarks, and a certificate. To participate in the March Into Reading Program, simply document three books you read related to nature, history, wildlife, or outdoor recreation from a participating library location. After documenting the books on the reading log in the booklet, visit your local Spartanburg County Public Libraries branch during a March Into Reading program or visit Cowpens National Battlefield to collect your special edition National Park Service March Into Reading patch and get your certificate signed by either a librarian or park ranger. If you live more than 30 miles from the Spartanburg County Public Libraries or Cowpens National Battlefield, please scan and email your documentation page to COWP_Information@nps.gov.
