Quiet Zone / La Zona de Silencio

We are designating a Quiet Zone for those customers who would like an area where they can have a peaceful place for study, contemplation, reflection, productive thinking or to just read, with minimal disturbances.

La Zona de Silencio está reservada para clientes de la Biblioteca quienes están leyendo, estudiando, conduciendo investigaciónes u otras actividades sin ruido.

Toddler Storytime

Come and hear stories, sing songs, and play learning games with Mr. Bill.

Designed for children 18- to 36-months-old. Parents/caregivers and children interact through stories, songs, and rhymes. Stories are kept short to fit the toddlers' short attention spans. Each Toddler Storytime is 20 to 30 minutes long.

Preschool Storytime

Designed for 3- to 5-year-olds and their parents or caregivers. Stories are longer than the Toddler Storytime and the activities are more complex. Children must be able to sit still for a longer period of time than during Toddler Storytime. Preschool Storytime is 30 to 45 minutes long.

We are taking a break for the holidays this week. Preschool Storytime returns January 8, 2013. Happy Holidays!
