If you are under 12 you can borrow books from the children’s library, DVDs up to a PG rating, and use the Internet when accompanied by parent/guardian.
Clare Libraries also hosts a number of Bookclubs for Children.
Note for parents
Children under 8 must be accompanied by a parent/guardian at all times in the library. Your child’s safety and behaviour are your responsibility while they are visiting.
The reading needs of children vary depending on their age. Library staff recommend that parents are aware of their children’s reading choices and consider reading level and content suitability of the books they borrow.
