Guest storytellers are regularly featured. Wendy Welch, who has a Master's Degree in storytelling from East Tennessee State University is in charge of this program. She uses balloons, stuffed animals, and other props to make her presentations. A Summer Reading Program is held annually for children age 4 - 13. Beginning June 10, the children may register for the program which lasts 6 weeks.
Special programs using local and regional leaders present weekly programs on Wednesdays.
At the end of the summer, the children and their parents are invited to a picnic. Hooked on Phonics is available in the Children's Area. The library provides recorders and earphones for in-house use. Periodicals and books for youth are also housed in the Children's Area. If you do not find a particular book our catalog, you may be able to borrow it from through Interlibrary Loan.
