Kick off your summer with the Churchill County Library’s 2025 Summer Reading Program, open to all ages—newborn through adult. The program runs from June 7 through July 31, and registration is open now at bit.ly/CCLSummerReading. Participants can track their progress using a printed reading log or by logging books online through Beanstack.

The kick-off event takes place Saturday, June 7 at 10 a.m. at the library. Stop by to pick up a registration bag and check out the amazing vehicles our local community helpers use.

With each visit to the library during the program, participants who show their reading log—printed or digital—will receive a free book. Readers will also be entered into a grand prize raffle for their age group.

To join online, visit churchillcountylibrary.beanstack.com/reader365 or download the Beanstack app from your phone’s app store.

We reached out to the writer/submitter and got this info back...hope it's helpful. PBM: Pharmacy Benefit Managers are pharmacies that are owned by insurance companies. (CVS is one.) They negotiate with drug makers to get reduced pricing for medications, but they historically have not passed along those savings to patients. https://www.ftc.gov/system/files/ftc_gov/pdf/pharmacy-benefit-managers-staff-report.pdf MFN: Most Favored Nation pricing is a policy that means a country agrees to offer the same trade concessions (like tariffs or price reductions) to all member nations of the World Trade Organization (WTO). When applied to pharmaceuticals, it could disrupt global access, deter innovation, and obscure the deeper systemic issues in American health care. https://petrieflom.law.harvard.edu/2025/05/22/the-global-risks-of-americas-most-favored-nation-drug-pricing-policy/Comment publication date: 6/23/25, 7:47 AMComment source: L E T T E R TO THE EDITOR
