Readers can 'level up' at Los Altos Library this summer
Briefly

The Santa Clara County Library District is promoting its summer reading initiative, "Level Up at Your Library," which encourages patrons to engage with reading activities to improve skills and earn rewards. Summer programs, such as watercoloring classes and author visits, are also being offered free of charge. Additionally, the Foothill-De Anza Community College District received a significant grant from the Mellon Foundation to facilitate paid internships for students in humanities fields, aimed at enhancing their career readiness and educational pathways over the next four years.
Library programs not only sustain children's reading skills during summer but also promote brain development, vocabulary growth, and imagination in adults.
'Level Up at Your Library' encourages patrons to read and complete activities, providing rewards for engagement with summer reading initiatives.
The Mellon Foundation grant enables the Humanities Scholars Work Experience, offering 250 students paid internships to explore career opportunities in the humanities.
These internships will help students advance their academic and career prospects, giving them necessary experiences to transition to four-year colleges.
