June 11th is the start of registration for summer programs!  Watch for details.

Book list from Literacy Conference 2006

Remember April 30th - the deadline for reading the minimum of 5 books from the Red Maple, Silver Birch and Silver Birch Express book lists!   Book Selections 
Our story time programs are geared to specific age groups.  Please bring your children to the right program so that they feel comfortable and get the most benefit from the books, activities, songs and finger plays.  Please arrive at the specified start time, late arrivals are welcome to come into the program during our game or colouring / craft activity. Story time programs are held on a drop-in basis.  This allows parents and caregivers the freedom and flexibility of attending programs when it is convenient to them.  It also allows greater access to library programs. No child is turned away from story time because of attendance limits.
