2026 JR Services Intro
This summer, we are breaking the rules of traditional reading logs. No boring book reports, no mandatory assignments- just pure freedom to read what you want, grab some awesome rewards, and hang out with friends. Learn more on the 2026 Summer Reding Program page.
At PML, our Junior programs & events are all about giving you the freedom to hang out, create, and explore the things you love. Whether you’re looking to learn more about the importance of honeybees, dissecting flowers, making a smoothie on a bike, or just hanging out, we’ve got a program with your name on it. It’s a low-pressure, screen-friendly space to meet up with friends, make something totally unique, and discover what the library has to offer. Check out some of our Junior programs below.
