LINCOLN — The library will be restarting their weekly toddler storytime outside on Friday, Sept. 11, at 10 a.m. with a few precautions.

Breathing and Listening with the Natural World, a new afternoon activity geared toward students in grades 5 through 8, will begin outside on the library grounds starting Friday, Sept. 11, from 3-5 p.m. This event, led by Kristin Andrews, will include discussion, craft and activity thematically motivated by present world challenges and inspired by Robin Wall Kimmerer’s book “Braiding Sweetgrass; Indigenous Wisdom, Scientific Knowledge and the Teachings of Plants.” Email the library for more information or if you would like to sign up.
