This summer, Cary Library is offering a new way to track
your child’s summer reading! Using the Beanstack online software, you can track
your entire family’s reading under one account.
GETTING STARTED
1. Go to carylibrary.beanstack.org
2. Scroll down the page and click on the “Register an Individual or Family” button.
3. Create an account. This will be the primary account. Multiple readers may be registered within this account so each child’s reading can be tracked separately.
4. The program will ask if you wish to register another adult. Click no.
5. The program will ask if you wish to register a child. Click yes! Enter the child’s information.
6. Repeat steps 4 & 5 for each child.
