Kids Events
Drop in to the Calvin Park Branch for helpful parenting insights from a Family Health Educator, followed by a fun, themed storytime. This program is in partnership with Midtown Kingston Health Home.
Sarah walks you through the creation of some quirky little birds in our first episode of Summer Art Studios. This new program adapts our kids' Art of Illustration sessions, creating something for all ages that will let your imagination soar!
Our staff and puppets agreed - it just isn't summer without our annual Puppet Show Extravaganza tours. So we're bringing the puppets to you! Pair this Three Nanny Goats Rap with The Tortoise and the Hare for the full experience, and watch for more shows to be released on August 17.
Library Services
Our phased re-opening has begun! The Central and Isabel Turner branches are now open to the public, with restrictions and limited hours. The Calvin Park Branch opening is disrupted by construction in the area. It will be closed on Monday, July 27 and Wednesday, July 29. The Sydenham Branch will reopen on August 4. Curbside pickup will no longer be available at these locations. Hours are limited in some locations, so patrons are encouraged to call or check the website before heading out.
All other locations remain closed but will continue to offer curbside pickup.
