Library activities resume in September

Library activities that were put on hold during the Summer Reading Programs will resume in September.  Bossier Central has prepared programs for all ages.  Mark your calendars for these dates and times.    

The second Tuesday of each month starting September 9 at 4:00p.m., Tween Tuesday for ages 9-12 years will be held in the History Center.  

The following programs will be held in the Children’s Library:

On Wednesdays beginning September 10 at 10:00a.m., parents are invited to bring their children ages 0-3 years to Tot Story Time.    

Family Story Time for parents and their children ages 4—6 years will also be on Wednesdays starting September 10 at 11 a.m.

The second Saturday of each month starting September 13, two programs will be offered.  Saturday Story Time for ages 3—5 years will be at 11:00a.m.  At 1:00p.m. Family Craft Day for ages 6-12 years begins.  Parents must stay with their children for this program.  

Looking way ahead, our annual BPL Fall Festival will be on Wednesday, October 29.  There will be plenty of games and fun things happening at all of the branches.  Then during the entire month of December everyone is invited to play the life-size Candy Land game.  It will take up most of the area in the Children’s Library.

Designate one day each week for visiting the library.   Logon to our website at www.bossierlibrary.org from your iPhone, iPad, or home computer where you will find reading activities, games, journals, newspapers, downloadable books, and so much more.      

Our Library!  Gateway to the Past, Bridge to the Future.
