Our Family Place Library is thriving and active. Since we have implemented the core components, our regular patrons come in more often and stay longer and many new families from Dover and surrounding communities have discovered our family-oriented services. The Parent Child Workshops have been joyful events where adults and kids have uninterrupted time to play together, parents can get their questions answered by a professional on an individual basis, and families can make connections that carry outside the library. Thanks to a very generous donation from the Rotary Club of Dover, we will be renovating our Family Place area to create even more interactive play/learning opportunities for families to enjoy.
