Battle of the Books 2025

Next date: Tuesday, September 16, 2025 | 06:00 PM to 07:00 PM

Battle of the Books, Glendora Public Library's annual intellectual slugfest, between teams of 6th-12th graders, will have you competing along with the participants. Teams of three read three books and memorize as many facts as possible. Then they stand and deliver, in front of an audience, until one team of book trivia champions receives the crown. The event will take place on Tuesday evening, September 16th, at 6 pm. The audience will be limited to two guests from each Battle team member. Glendora Public Library's Bidwell Forum (upstairs) will be the site of the spectacle.
