Lerner Publishing Group has announced its first Reading Challenge with Beanstack, a platform designed to help educators and librarians run reading challenges that engage more people. Schools and libraries can sign up to receive free access to the Lerner™ Sports Database as well as exclusive challenges designed to promote independent student reading through high-interest sports biographies. Participating institutions will also be eligible to win free print titles from the Lerner Sports line to add to their collections. The challenge runs from May 1st to May 31st, and registration is now open. To learn more, visit https://landing.beanstack.com/lerner-sports-challenge.
