Children's Services
We love “our kids” at the Roy Downs Memorial Library and are always happy to see them enjoying the library. We offer a variety of services and programs for children and hope to see you and your family at the Library. We are very proud of the children’s library so please come and check out the bright yellow library, with alphabet carpet, and miniature tables and chairs just right for our communities children.
Roy Downs Memorial Library provides the most recent titles in juvenile fiction and non-fiction, young adult fiction, non-fiction, biographies, picture books, easy, and beginning reader books. Here you will find many Newberry Award winning books, Caldecott Award winners, books on CD, playaways, books available for download, educational and entertainment videos, Blu-Rays and DVDs.
As a "Home School Friendly" library, we strive to provide the resources needed by home schooling families in the Shelby County area including juvenile reference materials, grade-appropriate home school kits, and resources for parents. We also work with local schools to offer the Accelerated Reading and Summer Reading books.
