From now until Saturday, December 23, the library invites infants to age 12 to participate in a Christmas reading program called Countdown to Christmas.   Participants who read 12 library books or have these books read to them, can earn a prize.   Details are available at the library.   Limit one prize per person.

East Palestine Memorial Public Library will celebrate Teen Read Week from Monday, October 9 to Saturday, October 14, 2017.  Teens who borrow books from the Young Adult Section of the library or complete a Library Scavenger Hunt during this week will earn a chance to win a prize.  

The library encourages you to read 1000 books to your child before they enter Kindergarten.  The simple and enjoyable act of sharing books helps your child learn pre-reading skills such as the sounds letters make, developing a bigger vocabulary, and building background knowledge--all important skills that help prepare your child for learning to read and entering Kindergarten.  

Our library has been selected once again to participate in the State Library’s Guiding Ohio Online program which targets populations in rural Ohio and helps Ohioans develop skills needed to fully participate in the digital age.  A trainer will be hired to assist our library with computer instruction, technology-focused community outreach, hands-on help, and other technology-related duties. Previously an AmeriCorps program, Guiding Ohio Online is now supported with LSTA (Library Services and Technology Act) funds.
