We're excited to announce that storytimes at all three Libraries have begun again after a brief December break. We have storytimes for infants up to age eight, including world language storytimes. Check out our children's calendar to find the perfect storytime for your child.
Now that the Coolidge Corner Library is open again, we are happy to offer our 1000 Books Before Kindergarten program at all Library locations. Stop by the Children's Desk at any Library to get started. Co-Sponsored by Brookline Early Education Program (BEEP) and generously sponsored by the Friends of the Brookline Library.
