Story Times

Due to increased demand, and limited staffing and space for Story Time programs, SLPL requires that both child and parent/legal guardian be residents of Upper Saucon Township, Lower Milford Township or Coopersburg Borough and that the parent/legal guardian be a registered patron of the library and a patron in good standing at the time of registration.  We hope the additional sessions for Story times will help accommodate the demands for programming. If the child and the parent/legal guardian is an Access patron living outside our service area, they are only permitted to register for the waiting list and they will be contacted if space becomes available.  The library cannot make exceptions for caregivers, i.e. grandparents, babysitters, or others, who are residents of the library’s service area if the child is not also a legal resident of the service area.

Enrich your child's library experience by coming to Story Times!

If your child cannot attend one of the sessions, please notify the library immediately by telephone at 610-282-8834 or via email at This email address is being protected from spambots.

Therefore, two consecutive absences and failure to immediately notify the library staff will result in forfeiture of your child’s slot in the program.
