Youth Services: Infant - Grade 8 |
Your Library plays a very important and active role in encouraging and developing an interest in lifelong literacy and learning.
The goal of Youth Services is to serve the child, infant-age 5; student, grades K-8; and adult by providing and maintaining a collection of materials, offering assistance in readers services, retrieving information, and presenting programs to stimulate reading.
Youth Services programs are offered for children and students residing in the St. Charles Library District. A child's, student's or parent's St. Charles Library card is required.
