Check out the library’s exciting new service: Dial A Story!

If you love story times and audiobooks or you want to participate in library programs but don’t have access to a computer, you can simply call our special phone number to hear recordings read by librarians and special guests.  We read picture books, chapter books, poetry, short stories, original writings, STEAM/Science info, writing or art prompts, and even tips for self-improvement.  We offer a variety of recordings for every age group, for children, teens, and adults.  It’s fun for people of all ages!

Call our Dial A Story service at 234-287-2020.  (No worries, 234 is a local area code for Mahoning County.)  Anytime, day or night, 24/7!

We update our recordings each month, and typically feature special themes (such as Asian-American/Pacific-Islander Heritage Day and the start of Summer Discovery in May).  So keep checking back for new favorites, next chapters, and lots of other goodies!

Our current readings for the month of May are listed below, with their respective menu number.

For the month of May, we are highlighting Asian-American/Pacific Islander Heritage Month, as well as the start of our all ages Summer Discovery program on May 1.  Sign up on our website at www.libraryvisit.org/summer-discovery.
