Storytime SD Encourages Libraries to Celebrate Reading Aloud This November

SDSL: Storytime South Dakota Storytime SD Join libraries across South Dakota for a very special read-aloud event This fall, we invite all South Dakota libraries to participate in a month of storytime events across the state! In celebration of November's National Picture Book month and to highlight the importance of reading aloud, participating libraries will plan a special storytime to share this year's Prairie Bud winner The Wrong Book by Drew Daywalt. Each library's storytime event can take place anytime in November and can take whatever form they choose. Special guest readers are a great addition to this event and are highly encouraged, specifically (but not limited to) local legislators or other local government officials. This is a great way to connect them with your community! Benefits Celebrate the value and benefits of reading aloud! Special events often draw in community members that have not previously been to the library. Highlight the Prairie book awards (this year's title is the current Prairie Bud winner!) and encourage voting in your community. Connect community members to local legislators and local government. REGISTRATION Registration is now open! How to Participate Register your library to participate. Once registered, review the digital toolkit and start making plans for your Storytime SD event. Make sure you have a copy of this year's selected title - The Wrong Book by Drew Daywalt. This title was the 2025-26 Prairie Bud winner so you hopefully already have this title in your collection! Determine the date and time of your Storytime SD event in November. Reach out to possible special guest readers. Once you have a date, time, and other basic details, please share event details with SDSL. Hold your event and have fun! Take photos and collect comments to share with SDSL. Post on your library social media account with #StorytimeSD. SDSL will then share and celebrate the all the Storytime SD events that took place throughout November. Participating Libraries List includes participating libraries coming soon. Funding for this program is made possible in part by the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) under the provisions of the Library Services and Technology Act (LSTA) as administered by the South Dakota State Library.
