5 Things to do at the Library Today

With winter here, it's a good time to enjoy the many programs and resources offered by the Babylon Public Library.

When the cold season arrives, like it did this weekend, it's time to find fun stuff to do inside and the Babylon Public Library is bursting with programs this time of year.

So here are five things happening at the library today:

Take the little tots, ages two to three years old, to a half-hour storytime program, called Inchworms, at 10 a.m. Parents must accompany the children to the program, which is being held in the small meeting room.
