Hello
Today is the first day of a new blog.
Our goal is to keep North Branch patrons up to date on what is happening at the library.
Patrons will also have an opportunity to contribute via the email address, or by posting comments. If you are a reader of books or watcher of movies borrowed from the library you are encouraged to post reviews.
Starting in April:

Tuesdays April 15, 2008 - May 20, 2008 at 9:30 A.M.
Play groups are a 90 minute program that meets once a week for 6 weeks. this program is designed for children 0 to 5 years of age accompanied by a parent or caregiver who participates in the activities.
children will learn new songs and sing familiar ones, experience the joys of creative movement, and play a variety of musical instruments. our developmentally appropriate art experiences spark the imagination, allowing children to explore, manipulate and create with a variety of materials. Snack and unstructured play time introduce children to social give and take and allow parents and caregivers opportunities to enjoy the company of other adults.
