Warm Winter Read

Public libraries across Victoria and Tasmania invite adults aged 16+ to take part in the 2026 Warm Winter Read.

Enjoy time to read, connect with readers across the state, and take part in a program designed purely for reading pleasure. With great prizes to be won and fun ways to participate, winter is the perfect season to curl up with a good book.

You can register and participate online here, or sign up in person at any public library across Victoria and Tasmania. 

To enter the state-wide prize draws, you can: 

  • log your reading 

  • write and submit book reviews 

  • or do both! 

The more you participate, the more prize draws you enter. The Warm Winter Read runs from 1 June to 31 August 2026 and is a state-wide reading campaign coordinated by Public Libraries Victoria

And...we will once again be running our Warm Winter Read 'Gannawarra Library Service Members Only' competition this year. Entering is simple! Between 1 June and August 31, when you borrow a book from us we will give you a Book Review form. Once you've finished your book, fill in the details with a review and return it to your library branch along with your book. The more items you read and review, the more entries you receive. The prize of a $100 gift voucher, will be drawn in early September. The winner will be notified by phone.

Please note: you must be 16+ and a member with the Gannawarra Library Service to go into the Gannawarra only prize draw.
