Virtual Book Club: The Infamous Ratsos for grades K-3

ALL AGES VIRTUAL BOOK CLUBS!

Instead of having in-library parties, we’re doing virtual do-it-at-home book clubs for all ages! The best part? Everyone who participates gets to keep the book!

There are four age categories: grades K-3, grades 3-5, grades 5-8, and grades 9-12. There’s some overlap so you can choose which book you’d prefer to read. Every book will come with links to explore, a blank review form, a few questions you can think about, and some activities that tie into the book.

Storytime Kit: Brave Irene

Our virtual, do-it-at-home storytime kits continue! We’ve put together packets to take home. The books are read by celebrities and animated using the illustrations. The activities included will be our five-color shape game, a handout with rhymes and web links, a maraca, stickers, coloring pages, activity sheets, and a craft!

Submitted by Leanna Chappell on

Hello, everyone!

Due to community shutdowns and concerns over the spread of COVID-19, the Swanton Public Library will be closed to the public until further notice starting Saturday, March 14th. We are ending our Sunday hours early as well.

However, the librarians will still be on hand to help you with questions via our Facebook, Instagram, and over the phone during our normal opening hours. Our digital offerings through our webpage, as well as the Ohio Digital Library, are also still available.
