Children’s Catalog
The Children’s Catalog is designed to help children find their own books and other library materials. Children can search by author, title, or keywords. There are also helpful subject guides to help children find exactly what they want to read.
Storytimes
Due to coronavirus guidelines, we are not currently holding storytimes in the library.
Mounce Library is adding storytimes, songs, puppets, etc. to a Facebook playlist.
Class Visits
Come visit the Library with your school! Our primary goal for class visits is to develop and nurture children’s lifelong love of reading, literature, and the library. You must make a reservation for a class visit. Schools and day cares can schedule class visits. Contact Jenny or Elaine at (979) 209-5600 to schedule a class visit at Mounce Library in Bryan. Contact Michelle at (979) 764-3416 to schedule a class visit at Ringer Library in College Station.
Homework Help
Homework help is currently cancelled at both Ringer and Mounce libraries.
Book Sales
The next book fair date is to be determined. For information about the Friends of the Library’s biannual book sales, see www.friendsbcs.org.
