The library is committed to offering free quality programs for children and their families. These programs are designed to foster an early and ongoing love of books, libraries, and learning. Help your child develop essential early literacy skills by bringing them to story time!
Story times are divided into 4- or 5-week sessions with a one-week break in between (usually to accommodate a holiday or school vacation period). Pre-registration is required for each session. You may join after a session has begun if there is space available.
