Children & Families

Preschool Storytime happens most Fridays at 10am.  Join Ms. Stephanie for stories, crafts and activities at the library, just right for our youngest readers! No registration needed to get a free book to take home each week thanks to the Rosen Library Fund of the Community Foundation of Tompkins County (while supplies last).

Check our calendar for the latest information!

The Southworth Library offers a variety of book clubs for independent readers, including American Girl, Magic Treehouse, graphic novels, and other themes, throughout the year. Check our home page for the latest options. An After School Graphic Novel Book Club will be starting in April – check back for more info and how to sign up!

There are also terrific Saturday programs geared towards families. Paws to Read and Miss Angie’s Music & Movement happen most months. In March, we are welcoming storytellers Regi Carpenter and Lee Ellen Marven.
