LIBRARY PROGRAMS
Library programs are designed to entertain, enlighten, educate, and inform. They are vehicles for dispensing valuable information, encouraging learning and exploration, providing amusement while teaching, and provoking wonder and thought.
CHILDRENS PROGRAMS
Storytime Activities (September - May)
Storytimes are scheduled regularly during the week, and as needed for infants, toddlers, pre-schoolers, and, during the summer, school age children.
In the summer, the library participates in the Texas State Library's Summer Reading Club, where goals are set and a celebration is held at the end of the summer to recognize everyone who meets those goals. A schedule of activities is available at the library.
June 5 join us for the 50th birthday celebration of the Texas Summer Reading Club. Sign Up for Summer Reading Club beginning at 2 p.m. Pick up your reading logs and a schedule of the many special summer events. Visit the petting zoo in the parking lot, and enjoy a puppet show in the community room. All ages, from babies to adults, are invited to participate! The library will have activities and programs throughout the months of June and July.
