Summer Reading Program  (SRP)   July 1 – August 3, 2025

We hope that your children will continue to read all summer. This year, our SRP theme is “Unearth a Story” and centers around dinosaurs. Starting Wednesday, July 1st, children ages 3 and up may come in to the library to report on their reading, or what was read to them, each week. The first time they come in, they will receive a necklace and “Brag Tag” rewards along with a reading log and stickers. Additionally, to celebrate the United States’ 250th anniversary, there will be books about America for elementary school readers on the display counter in the children’s room. Reading each book will give the reader a chance to participate in the weekly drawing for a Barnes&Noble gift certificate. Read as many as you can for the best chance to win!

“Unearth a Story” & Crafts

Listen to some dinosaur books and make an easy craft.
Thursdays from 4:30-5:30pm
June 25, July 9, July 23, & August 13

Join us for an experience kids will never forget! This fun and educational program blends storytelling, hands-on participation, games, and a visit from life-size dino Rocky the Raptor! Sponsored by the Mighty Five So. Orangetown libraries. Held at St. Catharine of Alexandria Church, 523 Western Hwy S., Blauvelt, NY.

Our Adult Book Club meets once a month to have a lively discussion about a different book each month.  Members work together to pick a variety of books and new members are always welcome!  Please call or email the library to be added to our email list (info@piermontlibrary.org). 

Adult Book Club is currently meeting on the third Wednesday of the month at 3:00 pm unless otherwise stated.  

For June, we are reading Heart of a Stranger by Angela Buchdahl. 

Our next Create and Sip with Alexis Starke is coming up- take a journey back in time along the ancient and medieval Silk Road trading routes from China to Europe. We will learn about and be inspired by Silk from China, using watercolor brush pens and embroidery thread to create our own colorful designs.

All of our Create and Sip projects are designed to be fun and inspiring for all levels of experience from beginners on up. Each participant will receive chocolates and a mini bottle of wine. Please email Alexis Starke at astarke@piermontlibrary.org with any questions.
