Paws to Read with a pup
Learning to read, especially out loud, can be scary. A friendly face, particularly one with a wagging tail, can help ease reading jitters and build confidence. Our Paws to Read pups will listen calmly and quietly, as children in grades K-5 practice their reading skills.

Paws to Read drop-in sessions are available Monday, Jan. 16, from 11 a.m.-1 p.m.; Monday, Jan. 30, from 4-5:30 p.m.; and Friday, Feb. 24, from 11 a.m.-1 p.m.

Registration is not required. Each child will have a chance to read a book of their choice. Bring a favorite or pick one from the library shelves.
Story time anytime kits
The library has a limited number of early literacy kits for families with children up to age 5. These kits include special story time goodies like a book, egg shaker, scarf, bubbles, snack containers and more and are co-sponsored by the Friends of Bethlehem Public Library.

Enjoy some fun-filled learning time when you pair these kits with our Storytime Online collection.

Story time kits are available to families in the Bethlehem Central School District. One kit per family. Click here to sign up.
Board of Trustees to meet
The library’s Board of Trustees meets this Monday, Jan. 9, at 6 p.m. On the agenda for Monday’s meeting, library architects at Ashley McGraw will present some design solutions to address current and future building needs. Meetings are always open to the public and can also be watched on our YouTube channel. 
Study hall at the library
Get ready for Regents at the library. We have set aside dedicated group study space for Regents test prep from Tuesday, Jan. 17, through Thursday, Jan. 26.

Most study halls will take place in our community room, unless otherwise noted. Students and their tutors are welcome to drop in and stay as long as needed during scheduled hours. Click here for the full schedule.
Weather closings and delays
In the event of inclement weather, the library’s telephone system will provide information on a closing or delayed opening. Weather conditions can occasionally cause icing near the entrances and curbside pickup area that could lead to closure even when the town roadways are clear. Call ahead at (518) 439-9314 if you are unsure. Information may also be available on our website at www.bethlehempubliclibrary.org.
