Library services for people living, working and studying in North Lanarkshire.
In-person Bookbug Sessions
Bring your little ones along to the library and enjoy songs, rhymes and stories from our Bookbug Leaders. The sessions give your little ones the chance to socialise with others and learn through play and songs.
Bookings for each session are library specific with some now returning to drop-in sessions. Please check directly with the library before attending to find out if a prior booking is required.
Remember babies are welcome to be fed however and whenever they need in all our libraries, look out for the Breastfeeding Friendly Scotland Award.
