Seymour Library Open House – January 30

By All Posts

Tuesday, January 30, 2024

4:00 – 7:00 PM

 

Come and Visit Your Seymour Library – Serving Brockport, Sweden and Clarkson

While the main focus of the Seymour Library continues to be the print collection of books and periodicals, an increasing volume of electronic materials are readily accessed via the internet and library online services. In recent months, the library created a variety of programs for patrons of all ages, enjoyed a fresh coat of paint throughout, planted a small “orchard” of fruit trees, and initiated a monthly exhibit by local artists of various media.

Literacy programs for toddlers through adults and learning activities designed to trigger interest and build competency in science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics (STEAM) fields are geared to different age groups. Other services include computer access, printing services, genealogy research through the Ancestry database, 3D doodlers, and programs on safe driving to gardening and much more.

Seymour Library offers an exciting range of programs and services, but you may not be aware of all of them. Join library staff and volunteers for an open house sponsored by the Foundation of the Seymour Library scheduled for 4:00 to 7:00 pm on Tuesday, January 30 at the library, 161 East Avenue. Light refreshments will be available, and Seymour the Dragon will stop by. Call 637-1050 for more information.
