May the Fourth be with you!
Get out your calendar and start marking, because we have a plethora of great events coming up this May at the Bedford Public Library.
The month opens with our regularly scheduled Tech at the Library class on the first Wednesday. On May 4th we'll be talking about LinkedIn Learning, a valuable online resource available Bedford Public Library card holderss with thousands of video tutorials on business, technology and design.
Voting for the 2022 Great Stone Face Award is now open to 4th, 5th, and 6th graders in New Hampshire!
Spring is back and so is the Storywalk at Bedford Village Common!
Enjoy the nice weather by taking a walk on the Common and reading The Friend Ship by Kat Yeh.
As you stroll through the common, you’ll see pages of the story installed next to the path. Page 1 is right after the arch where you enter the common and the story will take you over the bridge, around the gazebo, and back over the bridge to end back near the arch. All pages are numbered and within sight so you’ll know where to head next.

Winter Break week is packed with programs for kids from age 0-12 in the Children’s Room!
