Calendar

On Thursday, February 26 the library's regular storytime for ages 5 and under (with families) will host a special guest reader, Jhordane Stephenson, one of the Board of Directors from the  Dufferin County Canadian Black Association (DCCBA). Join Ms. Erin and Mr. Stephenson for a special story reading of "Hey You" by Adeola that will help our youngest readers observe Black History Month, and learn about the great initiatives that the DCCBA supports locally in our community. A fun craft activity will follow the reading. 

Give your child a jumpstart to a love of reading by engaging in fun, interactive activities with your baby. This is a drop-in program for newborns to 18 months.

There will be time to socialize with other new parents after the program.

Every Child Ready to Read is an early childhood literacy program for children from birth to age five. Library staff will demonstrate ways to help children get ready to read, incorporating five activities: talking, singing, reading, writing and playing. 

This program is also offered at 1 p.m. on Wednesdays at the Mill Street library.

Chat about your favourite books, discover new ones and meet friends. The Teen Chronicles Book Club meets monthly at the Alder Library.

Teens can earn volunteer hours by leading one of the meetings or writing book reviews. 

Join us in the Makerspace to learn how to use our Cricut Maker 3, including how to operate the machine and how to use Cricut Design Space. Participants will create a sticker as part of the program. 

This workshop is for youth ages 9 to 17. Spots are limited, please register in advance to attend. 

Please note, all programs in our Makerspace require participants to review the Makerspace Guidelines in advance and sign a Waiver.
