The recently designed children’s area at our public
library was made possible by Mr. and Mrs. Otto “Jimmy”
Borchers, the Pilot Club of Yoakum and funds from a
Loan Star Grant, along with the help of our librarian,
and other city personnel.  In this section, children may
relax on the couches and chairs while enjoying easy
picture books, early readers books and chapter books.
Storytime is held the second Thursday of every
month from September - May at 10:00 a.m. in our
children’s section.  While this program is targeted
for the children 4 years and younger, children of
any age are welcome.
Storytime
A program that is for children of all ages and is
held every summer during the months of June
and July.  This is designed to help encourage
reading during the summer; the more you read,
the more opportunities you will have to win
prizes.  
Our programs usually consist of live animals,
puppet shows, storytime, an ice cream party
and other exciting things.
Summer Reading Program
Our junior’s section consists of fiction and non-
fiction books, audio books, A/R books to coincide
with the school’s curriculum, and research
materials.
