Clairton Public Library is located at 616 Miller Ave., Clairton. Call 412-233-7966 for details on any library program.

Bake Sale - The Friends of Clairton Library will be holding its spring Bake Sale on Friday, May 22nd from 9:30 until 3 p.m. Come for our homemade, fresh-from-the-oven bakery items. The wide selection will include many varieties of cakes, pies, bars, cookies, breads, dinner rolls, as well as many special items. The FOL donates all proceeds for the benefit of the library.

Cuddle Time - Every Tuesday from 11 until 11:30 children from birth to two years of age can enjoy learning the rhythm and cadence of storybook language. This program is a great way to give little ones an all-important, early experience with books. Every child needs to be accompanied by an (adult) lap to cuddle on.

Wise Walk - Gather to walk, rain or shine on Saturday mornings at 10 a.m. Walk at your own pace. Join us this Saturday at our starting point, 616 Miller Ave. Bottled water and healthy snacks provided.

Stories for Tots - On Wednesday mornings, toddlers ages 2 and up are welcome to story time plus an educational group activity. Bring your child at 10 a.m. for more important and fun experiences with book learning. Don't forget your library card which will allow you and your young ones to select books to take home and enjoy.

Kids After School - Older children are invited to the library every other Monday from 3:30 – 4 p.m. to join with the kids from Sisters' Place for adult-lead, reading activities. Inquire at the main desk for details (412-233-7966).

Game Day - Every third Saturday the library schedules a children's game day. Many board games are provided, and all school-aged students are welcome to participate. Come at noon and play until 2 p.m.

Book Clubs for Adults - Clairton Library hosts two book clubs, one on the 2nd Tuesday of the month at 1 p.m. and the other on every 3rd Monday at 9 a.m. Anyone interested in joining may request a copy of the month's book at the main desk. If you haven't been able to order this month's book, just drop in at book club time. Join us for a stimulating book chat along with coffee and snacks.
