Lloydminster Public Library will be closed on Monday, May 21 for the Victoria Day holiday.

The Library will re-open Tuesday, May 22 and return to regular operating hours.

A 24 hour book return is located at the main (south) entrance to Atrium Centre.

Lloydminster Public Library and Arts Without Borders invite everyone to enter submissions for our 2nd annual Book Spine Poetry Gallery.

Book Spine Poetry is both a visual and literary art form that is created by stacking books so that the titles on the spines, when read out, make a poem. Poems can range from very short to epics. The only limit is your imagination and the size of your book collection.

Once you have stacked your creation, take a digital picture and submit it using our online form. There is a limit of 3 submissions per person. Each submission gets you an entry for our prize draw.

Deadline for submissions is June 2, 2012

We will be displaying submissions at the Library during the month of June and on the Arts Without Borders website 

Join us for stories, rhymes, songs, and a simple craft
as we explore homes of all kinds.

Storytime begins April 24 and runs through to May 31.

Storytime runs on Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday mornings starting at 10:30am. No registration is required.

Time for bed, time for bed
Fluff up the pillow
Lay down your head
Pull up the blanket
Tucked it in tight
Close your eyes
And sleep all night

{tab=May 22-24} Gardening Together

This is my garden
I rake it with care
Then I plant flower seeds in there
The sun will shine
and the rain will fall
My garden will blossom
and grow straight and tall

{tab=May 29-31} Neighbors All Around

I use my hammer and five nails.
“That’s too noisy,” my neighbor yells!            
I’ll hammer them now before it’s night!
1,2,3,4,5             
And to my neighbor I’ll be polite!
