Yesterday evening at the library’s family STEM night there were lots of opportunities to build and create together! Catch us again or for the very first time next month on Tuesday, April 30 anytime from 5-7 PM.

Keep up to date with everything happening at your local library this April! Printed calendars are readily available each month at the front desk along with handouts that include additional information about upcoming programs and events.

Shamokin-Coal Township Public Library will be closed this Friday (3/29) in observance of Good Friday. We will be open regular hours the following Saturday and Monday.

Preschool Storytime & Movement will NOT be held next week (4/1) and will pick back up on Monday, April 8 at 10 AM!

Don’t forget that tomorrow (3/26) from 5-7 PM we’ll have all of our activity sets up and running at family STEM night. Magna-Tiles, marble runs, and several other exciting additions to our growing collection of educational and entertaining activities will be waiting for you at the library!

This morning at Preschool Storytime & Movement we read “I Need an Easter Egg!” before singing our regular songs. Next, we used colorful pom-poms, feathers, markers, and crayons to decorate some eggs before the morning’s big surprise was revealed.

Little did we know that while we were having our morning fun together, eggs were busy being hidden all over the other side of the library for a miniature egg hunt!

Preschool Storytime & Movement will NOT be held next Monday (4/1), but the library is still open regular hours.

We had another full house for Book Bingo yesterday evening. Whether you’re a familiar face here or you’re checking out the library for the very first time, you’re welcome to join us for Book Bingo next month on Tuesday, April 2 and Thursday, April 18 both at 6 PM!

Yesterday evening at the library we got to learn about aerodynamics and air pressure while building and later launching stomp rockets! Keep an eye out for what our next visit from Bloomsburg Children’s Museum will be about, including a double booking in April to make up for the January event that got snowed out.

As always, thank you to Bloomsburg Children’s Museum for helping us bring educational programs like this into the community!
