Love your Library As the winter chill sets in, February is a perfect time to stop by the Library and pick up some cozy reads, a movie or two, a puzzle or a Full STEAM Ahead kit. The Library has possibilities for all ages and interests. All libraries will be closed Monday, February 17, for President's Day. A complete calendar of events, including closures, can be found on the Programs & Events tab on our website. This month we focus on Health Literacy. Visit with your local library staff to find books, online resources, and programs that meet your needs. Happy reading from the Community Library Network.

Sensory StorytimeJoin us for storytime. We will be making sensory ornaments to take home after storytime. Sensory storytime is an interactive approach to storytelling that supports children with sensory processing challenges. As opposed to traditional storytime, sensory storytime includes visual aids, and opportunities for sensory input experiences, and allows for freedom of movement. These storytimes are also smaller, reducing the group size and noise level for those with sound sensitivity. Geared toward ages 3-5. *This program is designed to support children with sensory processing challenges.* Tuesday, February 4, 10:30am, Hayden
