Storytime in Martins Ferry
Keeping with the fall theme of Storytime Around the World, we will be learning all about the Mexican tradition of Día de los Muertos, or Day of the Dead, in Storytime during the last week of October. We will be playing traditional Dia de los Muertos games and creating crafts tailored for the preschool audience, as well as learning songs and reading stories based on our theme. We encourage our Storytime families to dress in their Halloween costumes and participate in our “trick or treat” around the library during their weekly Storytime session. For more information about Storytime at the Belmont County District Library, please call 740-633-0314, or email Miss Jenny at jstoltey@bcdlibrary.org. Register online if you prefer.
Join a Library Book Club
Four library locations offer monthly book club meetings. The branch libraries in Shadyside, Powhatan Point, Bethesda and Bridgeport have regular monthly book club meetings for both fiction and nonfiction readers and teens.  Please visit the book club page on our website for more information.
