The program integrates digital tracking through the Beanstack platform with initiatives such as reading challenges, a localized scavenger hunt, targeted incentives for elementary school students, and an expanded operational schedule that now includes Saturday hours. The program is supported by almost 2 dozen local business sponsors culminating in a grand prize drawing on August 14, 2026.
