Youth Library Programs

At the Punxsutawney Memorial Library, we work to provide an area for children, tweens, and teens with resources that will prepare them for their academic and professional careers. Stop by and check out one of our many youth library programs and get creative in our active learning spaces, or just hang out in a relaxed environment.

1000 Books Before Kindergarten
Reading Challenge

Sign-up your child(ren), pick up your reading logs, and get to reading! The goal is simple: read through 1000 books before their first day of Kindergarten! This is a great way to incorporate reading with parents and grandparents. This initiative also promotes skill development during critical learning years. If you're new to the program and want to sign up, stop by the library and speak with Nate, our Children's Program Coordinator.  You may also email him at [email protected].
