What We Provide for Preschool Teachers
We work closely with teachers at all Park Ridge schools by providing access to supplemental classroom materials, supporting the curriculum, and collaborating on programs that develop information literacy skills and a love of learning and reading.
Reading Programs
We have a reading program for every child and every season. Be a part of a reading community and earn patches, stickers, prizes, and more!

Preschool & Enrichment Fair
Our annual Preschool & Enrichment Fair will return to the Library on Saturday, January 24. Representatives from more than 25 organizations will be on hand to answer questions and help you choose the best setting for your child.
