A contest to design summer reading bookmarks, using the theme Wild About Books, is under way at the Hopkinsville-Christian County Public Library.
The deadline to enter is May 8. Entry forms and rules are available online, the library announced.
There are three age categories for contestants — 5 to 11; 12 to 18; and 18 and older. (Anyone who is 18 may elect to enter in the teen or adult category.)
The winner in each category will receive a $25 gift card and 10 copies of their bookmark design.
