Encourage your kids to use the library not only by coming inside, but also through the Card Catalog. There is a Kids’ Catalog version which is much more user friendly and can be sorted by fiction, non-fiction, categories, or series. This catalog can be found by going to our website (http://www.milford.lib.ia.us) and clicking on ‘Search Our Catalog’ on the left-hand side. Then at the bottom of the screen, click on ‘Kids’ Catalog.’
Lastly, please remember MML’s last January storytime. Building Bookworms is in person at 10:30 a.m. on Monday, January 31, with the theme being penguins. There will be stories, songs and rhymes, a coloring/activity page, and a simple craft.
