     Starting Tuesday, September 4 - the Book Babies and Toddler Time schedules will change for Tuesdays and Wednesdays.  Instead of a Book Babies and a Toddler Time each morning, we now will have two back-to-back Toddler Time programs on Tuesdays (10:15 am & 11:15 am) and two back-to-back Book Babies programs on Wednesdays (10:15 am & 11:15 am).  The other storytimes will remain the same: we will have Toddler Time on Mondays at 11:15 am and Preschool Storytime on Tuesdays and Wednesdays at 1:30 pm.
