Children's Resource Center Community Listening Session

Share your feedback on the Library's plans to repair, refresh, and renew the Children's Resource Center into a dedicated early literacy center.

The New Orleans Public Library believes in helping parents and caregivers raise readers together. The reimagined Children's Resource Center will serve as the central point for providing consistent and carefully curated early literacy programming, resources, and collections.

The reimagined Center will include the following and more:

• An interactive play area designed specifically for babies, toddlers, and preschoolers
• A carefully curated collection of materials that supports the needs of early learners and their caregivers as they develop early literacy and school-readiness skills
• An intentional focus on a child's early years of development, learning, and social interactions
• A design that offers early literacy experiences in a nurturing and engaging learning environment

The Library welcomes community input on the new Center, and we’d love to hear from you.
