Dogs Enjoy Afternoon Reading (D.E.A.R.) is probably the cutest program at the Library! This free program is designed for new readers and kids who want to practice their reading with a non-judgmental, furry audience a.k.a. a trained therapy dog.

Each child reads at their own pace to one or more of our friendly dogs. Parents, guardians and siblings are welcome to read to or help newer readers. No registration is necessary, but please check-in with the staff member at the event to get on the list to read, sometimes there is a little wait. We will have a selection of books on hand to read or you can bring your own!

D.E.A.R. happens once a month, on second Sundays. Join us tomorrow, from 2-3 pm.

Reading for just 20 minutes a day can:

✨ Reduce stress
✨ Improve focus
✨ Build empathy
✨ Strengthen memory
✨ Expand vocabulary

Books don’t just entertain us, they help us grow. The Library's Summer Reading challenge is happening now through July 31. This is one of the biggest (and most fun!) Library programs of the year, so don't miss out!

Kids, teens and adults can all participate, win prizes, and read their way through summer.
