A Note from the Director

Hello!

The library has been opened 2 years already! ...and we keep growing every day. We have 155     members, over 9000  books and are updating our book list constantly. I am so thankful that this little library has been accepted by the residents of Shickshinny and surrounding areas. It warms my heart to see the children come in and decide which books to take out and which one to save for next time.

We have instituted a Storytime and they are well attended. For the winter we will be holding them once a month (weather permitting) 

We have a contest every month for the readers to participate in and win cool gifts....the kids love it!

As we continue into towards our  third    year , I am looking at only good things happening. ..If you are utilizing the library...THANK YOU!   If you haven't had the chance, please stop in...you will wonder what took you so long!

​  

Thank you ,   

Cheryl Bach

We want to extend a heartfelt THANK YOU to the Northwest Area Girls Junior Varsity Field Hockey Team for joining us for storytime! Their reading of "There Was an Old Woman Who Swallowed Leaves," accompanied by a delightful puppet show, truly brought the story to life It was a wonderful experience filled with laughter and creativity A special shoutout to Shelley Parnell making this memorable event possible.

The Shickshinny Flt Children's Library is a result of a $20,000 grant from the Central Susquehanna Community Giving Program. With this money we were able to fully outfit the library with all that was needed. We can never thank the Community giving program enough. (2022)

We would also like to thank the Central Susquehanna Community Giving Program for awarding us a grant for $7200.00. It gave us the ability to install a ductless heat and air system in the library, Thank you!!!! (2023)
