Parents / CAREGIVERS please NOTE:
Children under the age of 10 must remain in the company of a parent or responsible caregiver while in the Library. A child 9 years or younger who is attending a library program need not be accompanied into that program by a parent/caregiver, unless otherwise indicated by staff or special care issues surrounding the child.
Parents/caregivers must, however, be present in the building during the program, in case an emergency arises.
