Summary
A Clayton For You segment explained Hoka Ellington Memorial Library resources for students — Wonderbooks, Launchpads, active reader kits, free Wi‑Fi, study spaces and a library of things for high‑school projects; the library promotes free cards via claytonlibrarync.org.
A Clayton For You presentation at the council meeting showcased back‑to‑school resources available at Hoka Ellington Memorial Library. The library segment described programs for elementary students (Wonderbooks and active reader kits), Launchpad devices with preloaded educational apps for children without internet access, and age‑appropriate resources for middle and high school students, including quiet study space, online research databases, language tools, a “library of things” with photography and recording equipment and college‑prep resources.
The segment invited families to get a free library card and directed listeners to claytonlibrarync.org for details. Town staff later referenced a temporary library location on East Second Street while renovations continue at the main facility and thanked staff for operating the temporary site.
Ending: Library staff and council encouraged parents and students to use the resources and to visit the library website to sign up for cards and learn about program schedules.
