Family Matters

banner for sensitive topics

We know talking with your children, and your family, about sensitive issues can be difficult.  We hope to help make those conversations easier with some vetted websites for you to visit.

Remember, if you would like to speak to the librarian about checking out books or getting more information about these topics all you need to do is ask.  You can email rtonubbee@durant.org for more information and support!  We are here to help you navigate the Internet to find quality information for your family.  Please let us know if there any other issues you would like to see posted here.

The Lounge

Teen After School Program

Don’t know what to do after school on Wednesdays?

The Lounge is a program at the library for just students grades 6 through 12 to hang out and play video games, eat or snack, do homework, play board games, learn programming, or just hang out.
Play the PS4 on the big screen tv, try out the board games “Ticket to Ride”, “Settlers of Catan”, or “Exploding Kittens”, get help with your homework, test your skills out on the Wii playing Mario Kart, have a snack, play Fortnight on the tablets, and so much more!

We meet in the Story Room every Wednesday from 3:30 to 5:00pm.

No registration required, drop in and see what’s going on!
