Welcome to the Kid & Tween Zone!
Your library is just as awesome as you are — and that's really awesome! We have tons of books, movies, and music to check out. We have super fun programs (hello, Storytime) and a Makerspace. The tiniest kids can play and read in their own special area, too.
Visit the Makerspace!
Try out an awesome variety of gadgets and gizmos from Legos to Magna-Tiles, a new weekly Makerspace Challenge, and our ever-changing wall boards.
Book Clubs
We have two Book Clubs for kids and teens, Girls Rock and Guys Read. Both Book Clubs focus on Grades 4–8. Do fun activities, have a snack, and talk about books! Read more about our Book Clubs for All Ages.
Homework Help
The Library has so many ways to help you with your homework — even online! Visit the library to talk to staff, search our catalog for books, and visit our Homework Help page for awesome online resources.
