Celebrate Children's Book Week
May 13-19 is Children's Book Week, a celebration of books for young people and the joy of reading. Children who visit the Springfield Town Library during that week are invited to design a poster about their favorite book. Posters will be displayed and made into bookmarks for all to enjoy. Look for a special box with materials and instructions in the Children's Room. Young Adults will be able to go on a Blind Date with a Book. Look for the display in the Young Adult Loft. These activities will be available to all during regular library hours.
