B.A.B.Y. Storytime

We now offer three different "BABY times. You can join the the bouncing and bobbing at this wonderful storytimes series from birth to 12 months old. Children's brains develop so fast in their first year that it is the perfect time to start a tradition of reading and sharing books. This program runs in a five(5) week series. Contact the Youth Services Department to register. See ourSchedule


Storytime is a wonderful opportunity to share your love of reading and books with your child. We encourage parents to take any children who are restless or noisy out to the hallway until they are ready to rejoin the storytime. We would also like to ask parents to refrain from chatting or using cell phones during the storytime. We appreciate your cooperation and consideration for the other audience members and the storytime presenter. Thank you.

B.A.B.Y. Books

Ever wonder why a board book is made of cardboard? Because babies like to tear and chew, of course. The library knows that reading is one of the most important things you can do with your baby and that babies love to touch and pull and taste the world around them. So, we have a great collection of board books made just for you and your baby. Stop in and "check them out!"


B.A.B.Y. Program in Lycoming County

Each year there are about 1,500 babies born in Lycoming County. Through this program with the cooperation of our area hospitals, a packet containing brochures, a shirt, a book, bookmarks and more is given to the family of each newborn. This is our way of encouraging new parents to share the joy of reading with their baby and share their bundle of joy with the library. Learn how you can help support the Books and Baby Program

The James V. Brown Library would like to thank Masonic Lodge 106 of Williamsport, PA for a grant in 2007 to support the Books and Baby's Program.  This grant will help the library by providing over 200 Baby Packs to families in our community.
