Readers may earn a patch by reading three books from the SCPL. The books must be related to history, nature, wildlife, or outdoor recreation. Visitors may participate by downloading a program booklet online or by obtaining a booklet in-person at Cowpens National Battlefield and SCPL locations. More information to follow!
