The Oakland Public Library (OPL) has expanded service at all 18 locations as of Tuesday, June 15, 2021, to match the hours that were in effect before the Covid pandemic began in March 2020. All visitors will be expected to follow current health orders, and services will be adjusted as necessary to accommodate the current protocols.
People of all ages can participate in the Summer Reading Program. For children up to 14-years-old, there will be a book prize and a raffle for every person who reads over the summer. Come and enjoy crafts, science experiments, and games every Thursday at 4pm on Zoom; and online programs every Saturday at 10:30am including Zoom dance parties. Please register in advance.
If you would like to send and receive mail from kids and teens in other countries, please ask at your local library for more information about the Pen Pal program for children ages 6 to 16.
