Summer Learning Day is an annual national advocacy day highlighting the importance of keeping kids learning, safe and healthy every summer. The Public Library of Cincinnati and Hamilton County invites everyone to stop by any Library location Thursday, July 14, to make a Summer Learning button and to take part in special Summer Learning Day programs at select branches:
