WHAT IS TAKE YOUR CHILD TO THE LIBRARY DAY?
On the first Saturday in February*, thousands of libraries across the world celebrate Take Your Child to the Library Day by offering free, fun, fabulous activities for families. Your local library is an ideal place for children to play, discover, make friends, and have fun. And Take Your Child to the Library Day is the perfect time to discover some library magic. From magicians to craft programs, ice cream socials to story times, each library offers something unique and delightful.
Take Your Child to the Library Day (TYCLD) was founded in 2011 at the Waterford Public Library in Connecticut by retired librarian Nadine Lipman with help from librarian Caitlin Augusta and author/illustrator Nancy Elizabeth Wallace.
Since the launch of TYCLD in 2011, celebrations have been held across the United States and Canada and around the world, serving 48.7 million people.
No Australian library registered for this event in 2024. Let's aim to have a presence in 2025!
