Children
Storytimes
Storytimes provide an important role in helping your child get ready to read. You are your child's first teacher, and home is where your child begins to learn. The public library provides resources to help you talk, sing, read, write and play with your child through the Every Child Ready to Read initiative.

Every Wednesday • 10:00am - 10:45am
Books and Bubbles
Every Tuesday • 10:00am - 10:30am
Every Thursday • 6:30pm - 7:00pm
