The Minot Public Library is inviting people of all ages to take part in the 2025-2026 Sweater Weather Reading Challenge.

The challenge runs from Saturday, Nov. 1, through Feb. 28 and encourages readers to log each day they read 20 minutes or more. Preregistration opens Monday, Oct. 27.

Each month will feature a different theme and an opportunity to win a prize. Three names will be drawn each month to receive $25 gift cards. Each day a participant logs 20 minutes or more counts as a ticket in the drawing. According to the library, anything read counts toward the 20-minute goal.

Readers can use Beanstack to sign up for the challenges they want to join and to log their reading. Beanstack can be accessed from a computer or a mobile app.

For more information on the challenge and other Minot Public Library programs, contact the library.
