Local food trucks promote library card registration and Summer Reading Program

Grants Pass, June 17, 2025— Community members who show their Josephine Community Library Card at nine local food trucks throughout Josephine County during the summer will receive a 10 percent discount of their meal and an exclusive sticker while supplies last.

“Food for Thought is such a fun way to bring the community together. We’re so grateful to the local food truck owners for doing something special to celebrate summer reading and the importance of using your library,” said Library Director Kate Lasky. “It’s a great reminder that your library card connects you to more than just books.”

Participating food trucks include:

541 Fusion
Blaze-N-Monkeys
Chunna’s Food Stop
Grip-N-Grub
Mad Dawgs
My Island Kitchen
Scoop-N-Sips
Soulwise Coffee
The Food Lab

To get a library card, community members can visit their preferred branch in Grants Pass, Illinois Valley, Williams, or Wolf Creek during open hours. Annual library card sponsorship for children and adults who live in Josephine County, but do not live within the library district boundary are made available thanks to funding from Josephine Community Library Foundation.

The 2025 Summer Reading Program theme is “Level Up at Your Library” and is sponsored by Evergreen Federal Bank, Josephine Community Library Foundation, Oregon Pacific Financial Advisors, and the State Library of Oregon. By supporting the Summer Reading Program, our sponsors are investing in education and literacy in our community for years to come.
