The MoleCOOL Scientist: Extract DNA from a Strawberry (Zoom)

Teen Volunteer Shreya D. will show you how to extract DNA from a strawberry! Shreya will go through the process and give you the instructions to try on your own later! This is an informational program and you are not expected to follow along. 

This program is designed for kids in grades 4th through 6th, but all are welcome to attend.

Please register in advance by clicking "Join Event" to receive the Zoom login information so you have it before the program starts! Details will be re-sent to all registrants a half an hour prior to program start.

Make a Cute Magnet!

Kids ages 3 years and up, with an adult, are invited to stop by the children's section to create a cute, silly, health-themed magnet.  We'll be making magnets that look like fruits, veggies, and even tubes of sunscreen!

This fun event coincides with the annual Day of Service, when first-year medical students from Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson Medical School visit the library to share health and wellness information and meet library patrons.

Stop by between 11:00 AM and 4:00 PM!  

Pokémon Club

Join TAG volunteer Lilian in the YS programming room for Pokemon Club. Trade cards & play trivia games! No registration required. This program is best for Grades 3+, but all are welcome.
