Kids
Parents, you’re not alone. We can find your kid’s next favorite book, read stories with your little ones, or help out with a homework assignment.
1000 Books Before Kindergarten
1000 Books Before Kindergarten encourages your reader through an incentivized, engaging program! Sign up at our Children’s Desk at the library.
Reading Ready! Early Life Storytime
Bring your little ones for an interactive storytime, where we’ll focus on early literacy skills, socio-emotional learning, and engaging experiences in themed segments.
STEM with a Story
Saturdays are for STEM! Join us as we embark on this weekend series at MPL that includes: a story read aloud relating to that month’s theme, a STEM experiment to work on together, and knowledge to take with you!
Teens
There’s home. There’s school. Then there’s here.
Volunteens
Volunteer at the library and around town for National Honor Society credit and Civics Points you may need, or just because you want to! These opportunities will be every other month for two-hour increments beginning in February 2024. We’ll have a lot of fun together while giving back to our community.
Silent Book Club
Socializing isn’t for everyone, and that’s okay with us! Introducing a book club where you can read anything you like, just come to the Library for silent reading and snacks.
Read It & Draw: 4-8 Book Club
We’ll read various genres of J-level (ages 8-12) books in our collection, available for pickup at the Youth Desk (limit of 6 copies), then color/draw in reference to the story. This book club will include intermediate students, so 4th-8th graders are welcome. Snacks included.
Adults
View our many programs geared toward adults.
Books & Brews
Enjoy a lighter read? Join Books & Brews – an informal book club held at local restaurants the 3rd Tuesday of every month. Register and pick up your book at the library front desk.
Cook the Book
Come experiment with food and find new recipes at our monthly cookbook club! Every first Tuesday we cook a dish or two from that month’s cookbook and then share a meal together.
Let’s Talk About It!
At this long-standing book club, we read books on a theme each spring and fall. Speakers present on the theme and then lead a group book discussion. Register and pick up your book at the library front desk.
