Every Child Ready to Read

Every Child Ready to Read

Before children can learn to read, they must develop a range of early literacy skills. Learning begins the moment they are born, through language and play. Find out about the five simple practices that will help you raise a reader.

eBooks and eAudiobooks are moving to Libby

Libby (by OverDrive) is now our eBook and eAudiobook provider! Access to cloudLibrary has ended.

From January 23-30, we're moving the eBooks and eAudiobooks that were in cloudLibrary over to Libby. The following week, any outstanding holds from cloudLibrary will be added to Libby. This process will take some time, and we appreciate your patience. 

There will be some titles, including new releases, available in Libby while we transition, and you can always borrow something from Hoopla or Cantook Station!

Do you have questions about Libby? Take a look at our FAQ, register for a monthly webinar or join one of our in-person workshops hosted by KFPL staff.
