About the Program

Category: Libraries (Best in Category)

Year: 2022

Miami-Dade Public Library System’s (MDPLS) Coral Reef Branch Library’s Bedtime Storytime is offered to provide an opportunity for working families with school age children with the opportunity to attend a library program at a time that was convenient to them. This enhanced program contains books, music, and activities, as well as the opportunity for children to attend in their pajamas with their favorite plushie, creating a relaxing, safe space to prepare children for bed. This program was highly successful in person. In response to COVID-19 safety measures, this program shifted to a virtual format using Zoom. The Coral Reef Branch collaborated with the Kendale Lakes Branch and with minimal changes to the style of the program, were able to continue offering it in a fun and interactive way and connect with new audiences.
