Our STEAM collection now has a real microscope that you can use in the library. There are also four sets of prepared slides that you can use with the microscope. Just ask at the Youth HELP desk on the lower level of the library and someone will help you set it up. The microscope was a generous donation from one of our patrons.

Beanstack is a service provided by the Plymouth District Library to help families discover books based age and interests. Once you sign up, Beanstack will send you a weekly email with a book recommendation, a learning tip, and a library program suggestion. You will also have access to tools that help you keep track of what books have been read, booklists, and more!

The Plymouth District Library is proud to be part of the 1000 Books Foundation and their program 1000 books Before Kindergarten. We will have information, reading logs, and booklists to help get you started. Then every time your child reaches 100 books, come back to the library, show us your reading log, and get a bookmark and sticker for your child. You can also log your books online in Beanstack.
