Documenting weather, counting stars, monitoring light pollution, spying on squirrels, so many projects to pick from. For grades 5-8. Register online, in person, or by phone at 330.659.4343.

At each meeting, participants will pick a project to work on based on the provided selection of ideas. You can stick to the same project each month or choose a new one. Most projects will use an app accessed on the library iPad. If the parent/caregiver gives permission, participants can also download the app(s) of choice to their own devices. The means to document on paper will be available, also. The Librarian will upload the recorded information later. Most information gathering will be done outside, so dress for the weather.

About the branch

The library experience for customers of the Richfield Branch Library is eclectic and energizing. A rich collection of books, music and movies complement programs for all ages, including storytime and interactive play opportunities, book discussion, and more. Computers and computer classes, WiFi, printing, copying, scanning, and faxing help to make the Richfield Branch Library a one-stop spot for the community's educational and entertainment needs and interests.

In the community, you will find librarians working closely with Richfield Government and Recreation, the local schools, the Garden Club, Richfield Chamber of Commerce, Richfield Heritage Preserve, and more. At the library, opportunities for individual and family engagement include an extensive NatureConnect interactive space, an ongoing StoryWalk collaboration along the Carter Pedigo Trail, and other hands-on, participatory exploration opportunities. Every time you visit the Richfield Branch Library, there is something to do, play, study, explore, or observe—and the chance to make a memory.
