Thank you to the person that brought in a whole dino laundry basket of cool dinosaur stuff!! It was like Christmas looking through it! We will continue to accept donations of dino-themed items as we begin decorating and preparing for a great summer!

You can register your family for the summer reading program at https://arcadelibraryny14.readsquared.com/

Many have been asking - registration is now open! We will be utilizing ReadSquared for managing registration and contacts. You may register now and we will send reminders and updates as the program draws nearer!

With ReadSquared only one login is needed per family - multiple family members can be managed from just one account! Participants will earn badges as they work towards their reading goals and will have access to mini games along the way to stay motivated (though this is not a requirement).

Are you doing some spring cleaning??

We are looking for donations of toy dinosaurs of all shapes and sizes for our summer reading program. Since some will be repurposed for crafts, we'll even take broken ones!

We would also value any donations of dinosaur decorations 😊🦖

Please share!

What a great idea! We'll have a Backyard Barnyard pass available soon for checkout!

👀 Something new………‼️

📕 Backyard Barnyard Fans suggested it and we listened!

Now kiddos can grab a book and head out to the pasture and read to their favorite furry friend 🐑 🐐

Thank you for your book donations, we will be all set for the rest of the season 🙏
