Class Visits
Our Youth Librarians are available for class visits! If you would like your class to visit the Library or a Librarian to visit your class, contact the Youth Room for more information or to set up a date and time. We will be happy to design a visit specifically to your needs. Our ongoing outreach programs include the following:
-
Preschool Visits - Enjoy a special story time here or let us come to you.

First Grade First Card - First graders enjoy a special story time, an orientation on using their library card and the Youth Room resources, and a complimentary beginning reader provided by a generous gift of The Friends of the Library. Come to us or we will be happy to bring the library to you in your classroom.
-
Historical Tour - Enhance the curriculum by having a special tour highlighting the history of the library and the accomplishments of Martha Baldwin. Call for an appointment.

Fifth Grade Research Skills - Get ready for Middle School by seeing all of the research tools the library has to offer. Visit includes using databases, a tour of reference materials, catalog searching, and help researching pre-assigned topics. Internet safety is also addressed.
