Pitt Meadows readers of all ages can now join the Fraser Valley Regional Library’s 2026 Summer Reading Club, which runs from June 21 to September 6, 2026. This year’s province-wide program carries an “Under the Sea” theme and is open to kids, teens, and adults at the Pitt Meadows Public Library and all other Fraser Valley Regional Library branches.
Participants track their daily reading to earn chances at prizes, with 15 minutes or more of reading each day entering them into weekly draws. The more you read, the more chances you have to win. Grand prizes include Kobo eReaders — a Kobo Clara Colour for kids and Kobo Elipsa 2E for teens and adults — awarded through prize drawings, while 52 reading prizes per category will also be given away: KiwiCo Kits for kids and $50 Indigo gift cards for teens and adults.
Registration is free and can be done online through the Beanstack website or app, or in person at the Pitt Meadows branch. The library, located at 200 12099 Harris Road, is open seven days a week: Monday through Thursday from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m., Friday and Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Sunday from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m.
The “Under the Sea” theme, designed by Vancouver illustrator Hayley Lowe, divides the summer into seven imaginative zones—from the sunny surface to the deepest trenches—to keep readers exploring. FVRL, the largest public library system in British Columbia, serves more than 800,000 people through 25 community libraries.
The annual Summer Reading Club is coordinated by the British Columbia Library Association and supported by the provincial government and CUPE BC. Families can sign up anytime during the summer to start logging books and collecting badges.
