Millarville Community Library Summer Hours and Programs

Summer hours are Wednesdays only from 10:30am to 7:30pm.

We are again offering a Summer Reading Program for the children over the summer. It is so
important that kids keep up their reading skills during summer break from school, and we offer crafts
and games to enhance their library experience. It is a drop-in program and runs from July 8th to August
26th.

Summertime is all about freedom – no school, no rules, no structure. You can make up each day, and every day is different. Whether you’re on your own or with your friends, outside or inside or upside down, summer is the time for fun and play!

For the summer of 2015, we’re encouraging kids to see reading as play, and discover that the joyful, boundless and carefree feelings associated with play can just as easily be found in a great book. We want kids to have fun reading and share this joy, while they have the freedom to choose, explore, discover and play, any way they want. — TD Summer Reading Club
