Join us this Summer for crafts, book bundles, and special events like Library Camp!  Please note the various program types and requirements, such as registration required vs. drop-in, or in-person vs. take home programming.

With such a busy calendar, it's easy to want to participate in everything.  We encourage families to register for events that they may participate in or pick-up for on the date / time listed - consolidated pick-ups are not guaranteed.  

To cancel your registration, please call the library to avoid a "No Call, No Show."  Three no calls result in a program pause for the following month.  This policy ensures that your neighbors have the opportunity to soak up the Summer fun, too!

Registration for June events and our Summer Reading Program opens May 16th at 10 AM

- Tori Drews, Library Director​

From the Director's Desk:

This Summer, Sherrard Public Library District is celebrating our local charm!  It’s all about farming roots, baseball, festivals, and everything that makes a Midwest Summer so special.  "Farm Fresh Reading" is nearly here!  This all-age Summer Reading Program rewards your reading with prizes and prize entries - a great way for families to prevent the summer slide in academic skills.  And, adults can join the fun too!  Book bundles, audiobooks, eBooks, and book club selections all count toward your progress!

Farm Fresh Reading kicks off on June 9th (the first day to pick up reading program logs / tickets) with two awesome events!  All ages can drop in to Touch a Tractor from 10 AM to 12 PM to see large farm equipment, and our younger readers can pre-register to adopt a Reading Buddy from 10 AM to 4 PM - a great way to stay motivated to meet those reading goals!
