Timberland reaches out to special-needs residents with focus collections such as the Adult Basic Education and Large Print books. Most Timberland libraries have space for literacy tutors and their students. Homebound individuals can arrange to have library materials mailed directly to them. Children can join in preschool and school-age story time programs that include book readings, crafts, and fun activities. Special guest presentations and performances are also scheduled for young ones.
Some libraries offer story times for parents and other caregivers with infants and toddlers.
Teen programs include discussion groups and jam sessions, career and arts workshops, special guest presentations, and creative crafts. Book discussion groups for adults thrive in 17 libraries districtwide. Adult programs include living history performances, author visits, and special interest speakers. All ages can get involved in seasonal reading programs, clubs and contests. Volunteer opportunities are available at all Timberland facilities.
