Harlem Library

The library is hosting a program to encourage the love of reading in children! “1000 Books Before Kindergarten” is for babies, toddlers and preschoolers. Parents/guardians can track each book they read with their child using the READsquared app or by keeping their own system of recording the number of books read. Prizes will be given along the way! The Book Challenge for Jan. is to read a book with an author who uses initials in their name. Virtual Story Times is held each Tues. at 10 A.M. on Facebook Live. The Winter Reading program continues until the end of Feb. The library board will hold its monthly meeting Jan. 27, 4:15 P.M.
