Join us to sing songs and listen to stories. This story time will be held in the Meeting House across from the library. You are welcome to bring a blanket or chair to sit on during story time. Story time will be held this month on December 8 and 15, with a holiday break from story time the last two weeks of the month before we start again in the new year!

*Please note that indoor story time will have a capacity limit and attendees will be let inside in order of arrival (no registration). In the case of a warm day, we may decide to have story time on the common instead.

Story Time is recommended for children ages 5 and younger.

Paint a Dachshund in a Sweater with Pop Up Art School
Saturday, December 18 at 2:30 pm

Paint a dachshund with a cozy winter sweater. Pop Up Art School will show you how to paint the dog and create your own unique pattern on its warm doggie sweater. When you’re done, you can bring your painting home to display or to give as a gift.

Registration required to reserve a space. Walk-ins may be taken if space allows.

Thank you to the Friends of the Lynnfield Library for funding this program.

Ages 8-14

Decorate the Children’s Room Door!
Wednesday, January 5 at 3 pm

The children’s room door needs some new artwork. Stop by from 3:00-4:30 to draw a picture that will be added to our door to make it beautiful!

Children of all ages are invited to participate in this event. Registration not required.

It’s time to bring back the books you’ve been holding onto throughout the pandemic! Now that the library has been fully open for several months, our library network is reinstating its long overdue policy. Once a book, DVD, CD, or other item is 42 days overdue, the item will be billed to your account and we’ll need you to return it before you can borrow books or ebooks or use museum passes again.

You can return items inside the library when we’re open or by using the outdoor book drops any time. There are no late fees for Lynnfield items–just bring them back as soon as you can! And don’t worry, we won’t judge you for how long it’s been since you’ve visited.

Reminder emails and letters have been sent out over the past several weeks, and the next time you’re at the library, we’ll let you know if we see anything on your account. You can also check your account online or call the library and we’ll tell you if you have anything overdue.

While there are no late fees for Lynnfield items, some of the other libraries in our network are charging late fees–but again, the most important thing is that you get those items back to us so we can share them with the rest of the community!
