At the Library
Keep summer reading interesting by mixing it up a bit. In addition to traditional print books for children, the Library offers digital books from TumbleBook Library and Overdrive! Or try listening to books by checking out a Playaway or VOX book. Whether it’s reading or listening, your child can count it as part of their Summer Reading Club participation!
Visit the Library for free, summer fun. Numerous programs, including movie nights, a performance from the Dayton Ballet, and book clubs for kids are great reasons to visit the Library this summer. And don’t forget to check our calendar to see when your Elementary School Night at the Library will be held.
Research shows that reading to infants and toddlers is a great step towards building literacy early. That’s why we offer a Baby/Toddler Summer Reading Club for newborns through three year olds. Parents complete early literacy activities with their child daily and at the end of the program, earn a free board book!
Foster science, math and technology skills in your child by checking out one of our new Maker Kits for kids! Seven new kits, geared for children ages 3-17, encourage engineering and educational free play. The kits check out for three weeks on an adult, non-restricted library card.
We are growing our collection of digital movies and TV series! Access ‘always available’ content via Hoopla or Acorn TV. There is a robust selection of British TV series, as well as classic and contemporary American movies and TV series, from which to choose.
Construction is on schedule at Woodbourne Library! Browse our photo library to see the exciting changes happening each week. Grand Re-Opening activities are being planned for late September, when the Library is scheduled to re-open to the public! More details coming soon.
