About Beanstack

Through Beanstack, the library offers reading challenges such as our Summer Reading Program and Minute Madness reading challenge. Readers can participate through the easy-to-use app or website.

Beanstack helps you log the books you read, track your time spent reading each day, set reading goals, participate in library reading challenges, and win cool badges.

Recording your reading can be as easy as using the Beanstack mobile app on your phone to scan the bar code on the back of any book. You can then enter the number of pages, minutes, or hours that you’ve read.
