Family Literacy Day

In celebration of Family Literacy Day, the library will donate all fines and fees collected to The Winnipeg Foundation’s Literacy for Life Fund. The fund provides grants to organizations across Manitoba, including Winnipeg Public Library, to support programs that engage all family members in play-based learning to build essential literacy skills. To learn more about the Literacy for Life Fund, or to donate year-round, phone the Foundation at 204-944-9474(toll-free: 1-877-974-3631) or visit their website at www.wpgfdn.org.

Public Program Registration Guidelines

  • An email address is required to register for all programs. If you do not have an email address, register by calling or visiting any Library branch.
  • Duplicate registrations for the same name will be cancelled.
  • The Library reserves the right to limit the number of program attendees.
  • Family programs including Baby Rhyme Time, Toddler Time, Family Story Time, and 3-5 with a caregiver programs are an opportunity for caregivers to participate together with their child in the program.
  • School age programs are for children ages 6-8, 6-12, or 9-12. Children attend on their own unless otherwise indicated. Teen programs are for Grades 7-12.
  • Programs with children ages 11 and younger require a caregiver to remain in the library during the program. In the absence of a caregiver, the Library does not assume responsibility for a child.
  • Children are not supervised by library staff outside of the program space (e.g. washroom breaks or leaving the program early exit from the program).
  • Children of all abilities are welcome to attend Library programs. If the child requires the support of a caregiver to participate in a program, please speak with staff.
  • Online library programs use Zoom. Please familiarize yourself with Zoom before the program.
