About Emily Terifay

Hi! My name is Emily Terifay. I am a current student at Clarion University and studying to become a Librarian. I love books and reading, my favorite genres are fantasy and sci-fi. I also have a mini library at my house and I add more books to it at least every two months. I also have two guinea pigs, Timothy and Lemon who are adorable, if not a little annoying at times.

Outdoor Fun and Games

Summer is on its way, and it’s a great time to be outside! Drop by and join us on the Riverton Library lawn for fun, games, and art projects.

Best for ages 6-9 but all children are welcome.

This program is presented by library staff on June 17th from 3 to 4:30 pm!

Parenting and Paperbacks

Want to chat with other parents about the parenting book you just read? Are you looking for a place to discuss the joys and difficulties of raising kids? Join us for Parenting and Paperbacks!

We will be talking about a specific topic, and you are invited to read a book (or two) and come ready to add to the conversation. If you don’t have the opportunity to read a book, come for the discussion anyway!

Books on this topic include Raising Good Humans; The 5 Principles of Parenting; Family Values: Reset Trust, Boundaries and Communication with Your Child; The Me, Me, Me Epidemic; Mamaleh Knows Best; Strong and Kind; The Religions Book; Talk with Your Kids: 109 Conversations about Ethics and Things that Really Matter; How to Be Perfect: The Correct Answer to Every Moral Question; Beyond: How Humankind Thinks about Heaven; Hope for Cynics; A Faith Like Mine; Raising Freethinkers; A Kids Book about God; Fourteen Talks by Age Fourteen; How to Raise an Antiracist; What Do You Believe?

Spring into Shakespeare: Get Over It

Join us this spring as we celebrate The Bard with movies you might (or might not have!) known were Shakespeare adaptations.

This week’s selection is Get Over It (2001) – In this teen comedy, a high school senior desperately tries to win back his ex-girlfriend by joining the school play she and her new boyfriend are performing in, against the advice of friends. Rated PG-13.

This movie is based on A Midsummer Night’s Dream. If you’d like to read the play before watching, stop by Riverton Library to check out a copy. If not, just drop in to enjoy the movie.

This program is presented by library staff on June 10th from 6:30 pm to 7:30 pm.
