The Story Time Program could be a child’s first introduction to books and sharing of stories in a group experience. These visits to the library may be a child’s and their parents only experiences in using public library services. Story time needs to be a special occasion that children can look forward to each week.

When planning the program you will need to select the best in children’s literature and to select material appropriate for a specific age group. The Youth Services Department has resources available to make your story time imaginative and enjoyable. The resources available for loan will help you cut purchasing expenses and save time in creating your own storytelling materials.
