The Richmond Memorial Library building was officially reopened on June 1, 2021! While we enjoyed serving our community in other ways during the pandemic - Library2Go curbside service, Zoom classes and basically anything we could think of - it's nice to get back to some normalcy and see our patrons in person again.
So if you're just catching up, here's what's new for children and teens:
*More WonderBooks
Not only do they make the kids happy when the book reads to them, but the learning mode makes parents and teachers happy with follow-up questions to think about and discuss.
*Lawn Games to Borrow
Have you heard about our new collection of yard games that can be borrowed from the library? Some of the games that are available include: Bocce, Croquet, Giant Connect Four, Giant Jenga, Giant Checkers, Molkky, Ring Toss, Kan Jam, Giant Yardzee, and more. These items will have a check out loan period of one week. We've heard from those who have been checking the games out that they are a lot of fun! *We've just added Spike Ball and Bottle Bash too!
*Sprout Early Learning Backpacks
Through the generosity of several donations the library has received recently, the Richmond Memorial Library is pleased to share that we have been able to purchase twelve Sprout Early Learning Backpacks. These Early Learning Backpacks are a fun resource to help parents and caregivers prepare children for school. Filled with picture books, three or four educational games or toys, and an activity guide, these backpacks are organized by age and theme. Available for a three week loan period, the backpacks we have purchased are:
