Librarian's Choice
Did you know that you can ask librarians to pull materials?
The Librarians will select books, movies, magazines and more based on your answers to the survey. We pull materials for any age from babies to adults!
You can pick up your bag of books in the Library at the Check out Desk, or use Curbside Pickup by parking in front of the library and calling (608) 835-3656.
To make a request, complete the Librarian's Choice form and a librarian will get back to you with instructions for how to pick up the materials.
1000 Books Before Kindergarten

The most effective way to get your child ready to learn is to read to them. The 1000 Books Before Kindergarten program is designed to help parents and caregivers accomplish this goal.
The program is self-paced and you can collect your prizes at any time. Prizes include stickers, finger puppets and tub toys, and a free book!
You can track on paper or through our Beanstack app and website. You can count a book as many times as you read it!
For children 0-5.
