“School kind of hammers in that reading is work and it is a misconception,” says Ezra Hyman, Reference Librarian at Lima Public Library. “I would recommend read a little bit of everything. That way they can find something that they can enjoy. If you don’t like reading, lets day that you have to read a lot for work and you are tired at the end of the day, listening to audiobooks is a great way to get similar benefits.”

If you need a little reinforcement for your reading resolution, the Lima Public Library has you covered.
