Storytime Registration Week Starts Monday!

If you have a child between 0-12 years of age, we've got a storytime for you! Between our two library locations, we offer 15 storytimes per week. If you would like your child to attend some of our most popular storytimes, Bouncing Babies, Preschool and Toddler Time, you can register at the library of your choice. Once you register, your child will be able to attend the following 6-7 week session. Check our calendar for days and times at each location.
Of course, we also offer several "Family Storytimes" at both the Archibald and Biane Libraries. "Family Storytimes" are drop in and suitable for the whole family to participate.
If you're looking for something for your older school age child, check out Afterschool Cool. Held on Wednesdays at Biane and Thursdays at Archibald, this fun, informational program offers children ages 6-11 a chance to experience life as a passenger on the Titanic, help rescue slaves on the Underground Railroad and participate in an amazing array of art projects.
So whether you have a newborn, toddler, elementary school student or would just like to hear a story yourself, we invite you to join in a storytime near you!
