The Youth Services Department is located in the South-East corner of the main level of the library and serves children ages birth through 17, their parents, and their teachers.

The Primary Room, overflowing with picture books, easy non-fiction books, early chapter books, CD’s, parenting magazines, puppets, puzzles, and a wide assortment of Spanish books, is geared towards children from birth through second grade. The atmosphere in this room is fun and playful, perfect for getting youngsters interested in the magic of reading!

Located in the main area of the Youth Services Department is the Intermediate Grades section, intended for children in third through sixth grades. This section houses our large juvenile non-fiction and fiction collections, along with our reference collection, school textbooks, science fair books, magazines, paperback series books, and books on tape.

Complete with an interesting collection of reference and non-fiction resources, music CD’s, contemporary books, pop fiction, classic novels, textbooks, and graphic novels, our Young Adult Room is a perfect stop for youth 12 and older looking for a place to read, study, or meet with friends. Relax on a couch in front of a crackling fire, spread out study materials on tables, or use the computers to access the Internet.

If you need any further assistance, please don’t hesitate to contact us during normal service hours at 708-795-8000 ext. 3088.
