The library is pleased to offer online programs for the fall. We will continue to provide Facebook Live Storytimes with Oliver and Ms. Jo on Tuesdays and Wednesdays mornings at 10:30 am. The storytimes are recorded in the library’s children’s room – and until we can see all our kiddos faces in the library again, this is a great way to stay in touch. Don’t forget to ask about the fish tank!
On Tuesdays at 2:00 join us for STEAM Concept videos. Library staff will explore the concepts behind STEAM-based learning by exploring the following themes:
β’ Power & Energy β’ Elements & Processes β’ Life & Movement β’ Transportation β’Coding & Robots
The videos are recorded in the library’s Makerspace, which is currently closed to the public due to COVID-19 mandates.
