Register to become an animal storyteller!

We're partnering with Hand in Paw to bring four-legged reading buddies into the library! Register for a time slot and enjoy a cozy reading session with a therapy-trained pup. Hand in Paw Therapy Teams help individuals build reading skills, gain confidence, and foster pro-social behaviors. Bring your own book or check one out from the library and get ready to become an animal storyteller!
 

Sessions will be held in our 2 study rooms, and children, teens, and parents are welcome to join in on the fun. We ask that you bring no more than 5 people per session and that parents or guardians remain in the rooms for the duration of the session.

Registration is required for each group of visitors. Registration will open on April 11th.
