Do Good December
Kids can stop by the library to pick up this year's Do Good December packet. After completing 5 acts of kindness, children can come to the library to pick an ornament to decorate and to get their name entered into a drawing to win a Briar Patch Gift card.
Help us fight food insecurity in our community by donating to the Library's food drive to benefit the UMaine Black Bear Exchange.

New StoryWalk at Webster Park!
Storywalks were created as a way to combine literacy, physical activity, and fresh air. Visit Webster Park to follow our current story Halfway Wild by Laura Freudig.
At each stop you'll find a page from the story and activity to do. Read about our story walk in the BDN here!
The concept is simple, the rewards are priceless. Read a book (any book) to your newborn, infant, or toddler. The goal? To read 1,000 books before starting kindergarten! This program is designed to help parents prepare their children for school. Children get ready to read years before they begin their formal education. The most effective way to get your child ready to learn is to read to them. You are your child’s first teacher! Click to learn more about our new reading challenge!
