An Endless World Of Books To Explore
Program Aims To Inspire and Motivate Young Readers
By Leslie Williams
Pauline Robinson Branch Library
It is hard to believe that we are near the end of the year. Although our buildings are closed to the public, we are so pleased to announce our newest service. Several librarians across the system have worked tirelessly to create Book Explorers, a new service intended to support literacy development and to encourage reading motivation.
Where can you find Book Explorers?
Book Explorers can be found on our Read, Play Learn website at denverlibrary.org. Here is the link for younger kids, grades K-2: kids.denverlibrary.org/activities/home-k-3/book-discussion-and-activities-kindergarten-through-2nd-grade
Here is the link for grades 3-5:
kids.denverlibrary.org/activities/home-k-3/book-discussion-and-activities-third-through-fifth-grade
What makes Book Explorers unique?
The program includes videos of our librarians reading select titles and leading a discussion. Activities are included for kids to further gain understanding of what they are reading. The books and activities change each month, and there will be plenty of options to choose from and engage.
Are there other ways to access Book Explorers?
Yes, access to Book Explorers can happen on our YouTube page. Here is the link to that as well: youtube.com/user/denverlibrary
Other ways to get books
We also offer the option of ordering a curated bundle of any of our materials (books, DVDs, CDs) at all locations. Complete the form here: denverlibrary.org/curbside-bundle

We are still here for you, on multiple platforms. We thank you for using our services and being in community with us. We wish you happy holidays from the Park Hill and Pauline Robinson branch libraries!
