The Prince William Public Library system is hosting a “Prince William Reads” for county residents over 18-years old.
The contest runs until March 31, and all residents need to do to participate is to read books and enter a weekly drawing at one of the county libraries, including Bull Run Regional, Central Community, Chinn Park Regional or Potomac Community library, according to a county release.
“Adults … can read anything they want, any kind of adult fiction or non-fiction titles, or listen to them on … audio if they like. They would take a form and fill it out with every title that they read, and take it to one of the four full-service libraries,” said Sallie Tiso, the Adult Services Librarian at Chinn Park Regional Library in a release.
