 The Library and the Family



Believe it or not, there is something for every age at the library.
At Calgary Public Library there's even a page that allows you to choose which ones interest you. Events and Programs at CPL is divided into dates, locations, audience, and program types so even if you don't know what you are looking for, you still might find something worth trying out.


There are book clubs if you want to discuss what you read, classes on subjects ranging from business to job applications to English lessons, and readings by published authors.
And that's just for the Adults!

 


Teens have programs especially for them too. Book clubs, writing seminars, employment skills, and more. CPL knows that Teen is hard. They want to help.

School age children have programs designed for their special skills set. There are classes on juggling and making toys. Homework help and math tips. Savings and Science. Come and learn at the Library.


Babies and parents looking for a way to spend a few hours out of the house can come to the Library for a break. Baby Bookworm, Baby Rhyme Time, Drop-in Family Story-time and many more are openings in the day when library staff and community families can get together for laughter and support. If you're at the end of your rope, try it. it's fun.

 

And seniors have a special place as well. The 50+ Lecture series is an ongoing program that rotates through the branches talking about things that concern Seniors. It's not the only program geared for Seniors, but the others are one-time things where this is not.

So, come and participate! The library staff will be happy to see you!



Other libraries have similar offerings.

 Vancouver Island Regional Library Events and Programs are also searchable by audience, branch, and date.
