"Build Your Own Library" Children's BooksThe Oglala Lakota College Library, the only public library on the reservation, is running a "Build Your Own Library" project by which they hold events for children in various areas of the reservation. All children are invited and they have a story time session after which the children are offered a selection of age appropriate books that they can choose from to take home with them. The library is trying to engage the children in reading, expose them to the opportunities the library has to offer, and encourage them to build their own libraries at home. In order to be able to do this, they are seeking donations of new and/or very gently used children's books in like-new condition for ages pre-school to 10 years old. Please take a moment to look through your bookshelves at home, purchase some children's books locally or order them online Thank you very much for supporting the OLC Library, and encouraging a lifelong love of reading for the children of Pine Ridge Reservation!
