Mid-Hudson Battle of the Books
Info Session on Thursday, April 23 at 3:30-4:15 PM
We’re excited to announce that the Stone Ridge Library will be participating in the Battle of the Books trivia competition this year! The Mid-Hudson Library System (MHLS) Battle of the Books is a summer reading and trivia competition for students in grades 5-12 (ages 10-18), designed to promote literacy, teamwork, and library engagement across a five-county region. Teams from local libraries read eight pre-selected books, meet regularly to discuss them, and compete in a regional, fast-paced trivia battle in mid-September. If you are interested in being on the Stone Ridge Library’s Battle of the Books team, please come to our first information session on Thursday, April 23 at 3:30PM. You can learn how it works, see the books we’ll be reading, and decide if it’s right for you!
