Youth Services

The Children’s Services Department serves children from birth through 5th grade.  We are located on the second floor of the library. Our foremost goal is to foster a love of reading in children while our early childhood programs encourage early literacy.  In addition to our wonderful selection of picture and board books, early readers, fiction and non-fiction titles, we offer juvenile audiobooks, Playaways, and Launchpads. We also circulate family DVD’s and have recently added Xbox and Nintendo Switch games.

We encourage you to visit the Children’s Services Department where you will find a welcoming, toy-filled toddler play area for the little ones and Maker Kits for kids in grades K-5, plus homework computers.  You can also sign out IPads pre-loaded with age-appropriate apps for in-library use. 

We also offer a wide variety of dynamic, educational programs that are designed to encourage children’s creativity and enhance their love of reading.  Be sure to check out the calendar for our ongoing storytimes and monthly programs. We have listed below other resources available to our patrons.

Our friendly and knowledgeable Children’s Department staff is eager to assist you with your informational needs.  Don’t know what to read?  Our experienced staff will recommend quality authors and literature for your enjoyment.  Come visit today!
