SIGN UP: 2020 Library Love Challenge

Posted on November 22, 2019 by Angela

Welcome to the fourth annual Library Love Challenge hosted by Angel’s Guilty Pleasures & Books of My Heart. 

I hope you will join us in celebrating and support libraries.

If you are like us; then you like to purchase every book you want to read.  And, well that can put a hurt on your wallet.  One way to help lessen the hurt is to check out books (prints, ebooks, or audios) from the library.  If you do this, it will help save you LOTS of money $$.

Getting a library card in most places is FREE.  So, if you love to read and/or listen to books then grab your library card and join the challenge.

Details:
Runs: January 1, 2020 – December 31, 2020.
You can join anytime.
The sign-up will remain open until Dec. 31st, 2020.

  • Put a sign up post on your blog or (dedicate a Goodreads shelf or LibraryThing) and link it in the linky below.  Make sure it’s public.
  • Please link back to both challenge hosts and include the challenge button in your sign-up posts.
  • The goal is to read at least twelve (12) books from the library, but you can read more.  While twelve is the minimum; there is no maximum limit.  See the different levels below and pick the one that works best for you.
  • Any format will work for this challenge (prints, ebooks, or audios); as long as you checked it out from the library, it counts.
  • Books can be any genre (fiction, nonfiction, romance, fantasy, mystery, thriller, horror, etc.).
  • Crossovers from other reading challenges are allowed, including re-reads.  The goal is to support your local library and save money.
  • Monthly Library Love Email: We are offering up a Monthly Email dedicated to the library love challenge.  This email will focus on the monthly posts.  Everyone who signs up will get a confirmation email, you can unsubscribe at any time, including after the sign-up, more information at the bottom of this post or Sign Up Now.
  • As an added bonus: We’re offering up MONTHLY GIVEAWAYS with this Challenge.  On the 1st of every month, a link-up will go up on both Angel’s Guilty Pleasures and Books of My Heart where you can leave your links for your reviews on the books you read from the library.  One Winner will be picked each month!! So make sure to stop by each month to enter.  More details below. 
  • (Optional) Reviews: Write a review to enter the giveaway – 2 sentences or an essay, whatever works for you, but there is a minimum of 2 sentences.  Not sure what to write? How about something like, “The plot was a delight, but the characters didn’t capture me.” “I enjoyed the story and really liked the characters.”
  • Please use #LibraryLoveChallenge when sharing your reviews, library pictures, etc…

This year we are doing things differently.  Now that I’ve got a co-host who is as much in love with the library as I am; we’re going to be offering up MONTHLY GIVEAWAYS.  Each month will be something different.  You do have to join the challenge to enter the giveaways, then we have a few freebie options; like following one or both of use, sharing, and then the main entries which are adding your book reviews.  The Monthly Post/Giveaway will go live each month on the 1st and you will have until the 4th of the next month to enter, before the giveaway closes.

 

Once you have your sign up post live or Goodreads Shelf or LibraryThing, ect…, add your link below!
Feel free to grab the banner to share or showcase the challenge.

    Hi Angela, quick question, do I have to link up my Sign-Up post over at Books of My Heart too? Not sure about that …

    • Angela

      January 3, 2020 at 10:31 am

      No you do not have to link up at Books of My Heart. We share the same linky for sing-up and for all the monthly review link-ups, so your link will show on both blogs. Only have to link once. Does this answer your question/make sense? Glad to have you joining us.

      • Vi @Inkvotary

        January 4, 2020 at 6:03 am

        It does answer my question and it does make sense *smile*. Thank you, Angela.

          Oh good! I sometimes wonder if I put my thoughts into the correct words to make it easy to understand. Typing out what you think and how things work, sometimes don’t always go the way you want. ^_^

    I’m in! I’m so glad I stumbled across your challenge. I host one through my own book blog, as well. I appreciate that yours is library specific. A lot of avid readers I know feel “bad” about getting books from the library when they already have so many at home. This is a great way too soothe that guilt, lol

      December 19, 2019 at 5:13 pm

      Erica,
      WELCOME to the Library Love Challenge. We here love our libraries and love supporting and sharing our love for them. We hope you enjoy the challenge! I added you to the list and you are number 25 on the sign-up. I did notice that your self is private. If you can make it public that would be great. Have fun and we hope you enjoy the challenge.

    Hello, New to reading challenges. I had already decided to take part in the Modern Mrs Darcy and NJM challenges, but as I work in the library service wanted to make them all library books. So this challenge is sooo perfect. I have created a Library Thing account (wwlarking) so I hope that works and links ok.

    • Angela

      December 14, 2019 at 5:10 pm

      Hi Wendy,

      I’m glad you deiced to join. I hope you enjoy the challenge. Any location where you can link to a list and/or page works for this challenge. You don’t have to have a blog. Many like Goodreads, but Library Thing works or another service.

    I feel like I’d be cheating if I signed up for this. 99% of the books I read come from the library, and a book has to really deserve a spot on my shelves for me to purchase it. I also work at a library so I have super easy access…

    But as a Library Worker, I really appreciate the support of libraries!

    • Angela

      December 5, 2019 at 9:36 am

      You wouldn’t be cheating, ^_^ so feel free to sign-up. That’s wonderful you are a library worker. Libraries need support and this is one way to get people to enjoy and use their local library. I LOVE MY LIBRARY! Thank’s for stopping by.

      • Al @ mounttoberead

        December 19, 2019 at 7:49 pm

        Decided to go ahead and join. Thanks again for supporting libraries! Glad to be here. Always good to have another challenge to motivate.

    i meant to do this challenge in 2019, but the only books i read from the library were the twilight series, then i bought the books and plan on rereading them this year and i didn’t keep up with my other challenges so i passed. because i have a lot of books i want to read, i’ll be doing it for sure in 2020 to encourage me to get on it. 🙂 i’ll be back after making a post

      It’s ok you skipped in 2019. I hope you enjoy the challenge for 2020 and that this will help you us the library. I know I was planning on reading more of my kindle freebies this year, but didn’t read as many as I was planning too, so I know how it is. We all get side tracked or let the challenge fall away ^_^!
