Library To Offer Winter Reading Program

Tompkins County Public Library will launch its Winter Reading Program Saturday, December 10 with special reading programs for infants, toddlers and school-aged readers.

Programs being planned are:

• Pre-Reader Program (Ages 0-4)-- Infants, toddlers, preschoolers and their parents and caregivers are invited to pick-up a Reading Game Card featuring ideas on incorporating early literacy activities into everyday routines. Participants will earn a free book and be entered into our raffle to win great prizes!

•  Readers’ Program (Ages 5 and over)--This program encourages school-aged readers to explore their library and have fun while reading. Children who complete activities and read book suggestions from their Reading Game Card will earn a free book, and be entered into our prize raffles. 

These programs will run from December 10 through January 21, 2017.

For more information, contact the Youth Services Department at (607) 272-4557 extension 275.

The Winter Reading Program has been made possible by the Tompkins County Public Library Foundation with support from the Michael Kammen Children's Fund.
