Travel back in time and uncover the wonders of the ancient world! Each week, explorers will dive into a new theme — from painting sarcophaguses and writing in hieroglyphics to discovering ancient food, culture, engineering, and more. Every session features hands-on crafts, interactive stations, and creative challenges designed to bring history to life. Join us as we dig into the past and become true Ancient Explorers!

Registration is required! Registration begins May 17 and closes June 4th. Register at yorklibraries.org via the Events Calendar.
Registration is required, but explorers do not need to attend every week — join us for one adventure or all of them!
Ages 8-14
Mondays, 3-4pm Starting June 8th. Please note, there is no club meeting on July 20! Join us instead for a Magical Bubble Experience with River Barry

Kick off your summer reading adventure with some furry friends!

Our next Library Tales for Tails program is helping launch SummerQuest and this year’s theme: Unearth a Story! Dig into reading success with Evie the German Shepherd, Truffles the yellow lab, and Chloe the Westie on Monday, June 8 from 6–7 PM.

Reading to therapy dogs helps young readers build fluency, boost confidence, and keep their reading skills strong all summer long — plus, the dogs are excellent listeners.

Readers can register for a 15-minute time slot with their favorite pup. Spots fill quickly, so don’t paws too long to sign up! (See what we did there?)

Think outside the box with us tonight!

Our first Eclectic Book Club meets TONIGHT from 6–7pm, and no genre is off limits. From classics to contemporary, thrillers to fantasy, weird picks to hidden gems—we’re ready to read it all!

We’re kicking things off with Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, and future book club picks will be chosen by the group. In other words…your next favorite read might be waiting just around the corner.

Come join the conversation, share your thoughts, and help shape what we read next!

These two brothers were off to the races with the 1000 Books Before Kindergarten challenge — and their hard work paid off!

They officially crossed the finish line and proved that reading is a winning ride from start to finish. We’re so proud of these little book jockeys
