Stories are better when shared. 

Book Buddies is a FREE program that pairs children with adult volunteers to share the joy of reading together. For 10 weeks, the Adult and Little Buddies meet once a week in the afternoon for 45 minutes of one-on-one shared reading. Open to children in grades K-3rd.

Turn reading into an adventure and watch your child's confidence grow! Our Spring cycle of Book Buddies will run from March 18th to May 20th.

Enjoy a classic movie in the Movie Time Club!

This month we will show the movie, The Rescuers (1977, PG). When an orphan girl is kidnapped no-one seems to care, except a secret worldwide association of mice called The Rescue Aid Society: `The Rescuers'. Bernard and Bianca, two members of The Rescuers, set out on a perilous journey to find Penny.

Parents, want to know more before the viewing? Read more about this movie (and many others!) on CommonSenseMedia.org

Join us at the Parker Williams Library Innovation Lab for our 3D Printer Orientation!

This orientation session will introduce participants to the 3D printing services we offer at the library. Those who complete the orientation will then be able to request supervised time to use a 3D printer at any HCPL branch that has one. Attending this orientation is mandatory before patrons can request time to use a 3D printer in the future.

This event is open to all ages. Children ages 12 and under must be accompanied by an adult guardian.
