CPL's Book a Week Challenge discussion

Book Quest 2019 site is now live!

We are using Beanstack this year, which is the same site we used for the Summer Reading Challenge 2018. This means that if you participated during summer reading, you just need to use your log in information from that to access the site.

Don't have a log in? Follow the steps bellow to create your account.

Access the Beanstack website here

1. Click the "Sign in" icon in the top right hand corner. Then click on "Sign up for free"


2. 2. Click "I am registering myself."

3. Fill in the required information. (Note: Under "Grade Level," select "Adult." You do not need to put in a school).

4. You do not have to add another adult or child to the account; select "No" and then click "Continue" on the final page.

5. This is your home page! Click on "Register for Program" under Book Quest


6. Select your home branch (this is for statistical purposes)

7. Congrats! You are now registered. Click on "Return to this program" to see the program page.

8. To log your reading, select "Log Reading" on the top of the page


9. It will ask you what you are logging, your only option will be books. Click the book

10. Add your title and author (feel free to leave a review but you don't have to). Beanstack is intuitive and may give you options as you type in the title.

11. Hit "Log" to log the book.

12. The badge you earn will appear! Hit "Close" to exit out of the badge

13. To exit the logging screen, hit the X in the top right corner

14. Once you've logged your first book, a new tab will appear called "Program Log." This will show you all the books you have logged for the program.


Accidentally added a book? Hit the "Program Log" tab. Click the cover of the book you want to remove. There will be a link under the book information to "Remove."

There you have it! If you have any questions, feel free to write me here or email me at jherlan@infopeake.org

Happy book logging!

Thank you for the removing info! I accidentally added a book twice and freaked out before reading all the way down this.

You're welcome! That was one of the biggest challenges on the last platform we used; you couldn't delete anything!

Let me know if you have any other questions! Good luck with the challenge!
