Kids & Teens

Our goal is to create an environment that emphasizes both the importance and the fun of reading and learning! We do this through collections, technology, and programs that educate and entertain the youth of our community.

Kids & Teens


Parents & Kids

Play Games

Children can play educational games on our Early Literacy Computers. Our preschool room offers many ways to learn using manipulatives, puzzles, and dramatic play.

Discovery Packs

We offer Discovery Packs, perfect for a child with a particular interest. Each kit contains books, puzzles, games, or activities related to a theme. The themes cover many interests from Dora the Explorer to magic tricks.
