It may be cool to start the mornings, but the sun makes the back lawn toasty warm so join us on those sunny Tuesday mornings in October from 10:30 to 11 AM for movement based stories and songs. Once it gets way too cold we will try indoor small group story times.
This program is weather dependent. If it is a rainy morning we will not meet. If you are not sure if storytime is happening, check our Facebook page or call 899-4962.
For the safety of all who attend, everyone must maintain 6 feet of social distance, and everyone over the age of 2 must wear a mask. Please bring a blanket or a towel for your family to sit on.
From now until April 2021, we will be meeting at the Jericho Community Center the last Tuesday of every month at 7 PM. This month, we will be discussing Rules of Prey by John Sandford. If you need a book, please call the library (899-4962) to request a copy. Due to delays with our courier you should request soon so that it has time to arrive.
In-person program — Registration is not required, but social distancing guidelines will be observed and masks must be worn by all attendees. This program meets at the Jericho Community Center, located at 329 Browns Trace Rd, Jericho.
Curbside crafts are available on Wednesdays during curbside pick up from 1pm – 5:30pm and come with pretty much everything you need to complete the craft. There are only a limited number available, so first come, first served. Extras will be put out each day until they’re all gone. October’s crafts include Craft Stick Scarecrows, Leaf Lanterns, and Glow in the Dark Bead bracelets.
All are invited to join our continuing discussion of the Vermont Reads 2020 selection The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas. More than just a book group, this is a chance to discuss as a racism and its impacts, both in our own community and in the nation. The Vermont Humanities Council has provided us with a number of copies to distribute in order to facilitate conversations about this important work. Adult and teen readers are both invited to participate. To request a copy, please email us at [email protected].
