The Assiniboia and District Library had an information table at the community registration night on September 7 at the Prince of Wales Centre in Assiniboia. At the table with volunteers, branch librarian Lori Crighton, on the right, explained the variety of resources available at the library.
On display was information about online resources, in house reading and multimedia resources, activities and programming.
Storytime is one of the upcoming children鈥檚 programming that takes place at the library from September 13 to December 29. The popular drop-in program runs on Wednesdays at 10:30 a.m. until 11:00 a.m. It is aimed at small children aged three to five where they have guided story reading, crafts, activities and snacks.
The Assiniboia library offers in-house books, DVDs, and other reading resources for children, teens and adults as well as digital resources such as hoopla and zinio and other services for ebooks, audio books, movies, newspapers and magazines. It also offers the In Motion activity tubs for children.
The library also offers community programming. This month, it is conducting a programming survey on Facebook and at the branch, offering the chance for community input. The library is running a weekly trivia contest on Facebook and at the branch with the winner receiving a prize of a book. The student鈥檚 summer reading contest draw will be taking place soon.
