Family Mornings

At Family mornings, adults with infants and children of preschool age come together to read books, play, sing and chat about everything and nothing...and of course the children. Once in a while there are some educational talks about children and parenting, but the library also has a lot of interesting and informative books and magazines related to the subject that you can browse on the spot or borrow if you have a library card. Of course we also have a great selection on children's books! 

The changing facilities are good at all the libraries and also, there is always coffee on the house.

Family mornings are once a week at the city libraries in Gerðuberg (Breiðholt neighbourhood) and Úlfarsárdalur, and twice a week at the library in Grófin (down town). Below you can read more about each one.
