We have a wonderful collection of books and videos for children of all ages. From books for toddlers to books for young adults; we have something for every child.

 

The Children's room is also a great place for children to come to sit and relax, read a book, or make a craft with our new Art Cart. They can also come and play on our children's computer. We have close to 40 fun & educational games available for use at the library.

 

The Mary S. Biesecker Public Library also offers regular story times throughout the year for children of all ages.
