What Can the Library Do For You?

Let’s show your daycare group that the library is more than just a place to hang out! Together we can make your group’s visits to the library special, meaningful, and fun. Please talk to a Children’s Librarian for information about:

• Arranging a special storytime, booktalk, or tour of the library
• Fun books for your daycare group to read, either alone or out loud
• Activity books with arts and crafts, song, games, science projects, etc.
• Guidebooks to identify plants and animals on nature walks around town
• Books to help your group with their tricky homework problems
• Any other child development or curriculum needs you may have.

If you have more than five children in your preschool or daycare, they should come to a separate, pre-arranged storytime instead of to the regularly-scheduled storytimes for children. If you have under six children in your group, feel free to come to a regular storytime (See the calendar for details). The library wants to help commercial daycare providers provide their daycare groups with fun and meaningful library visits. There is a large demand for library space and services. To make sure everyone gets a fair chance to use the library’s limited resources, the library has special guidelines for commercial daycare providers:
