Ontario Public Library now offers access to Kanopy

By APRIL KROEGER | Ontario Public Library director

We now offer free access to Kanopy, a streaming service that provides access to an extensive collection of narrative and documentary films, TV shows, and content for kids. 

Go to wrls.kanopy.com, or download the Kanopy app to your TV or mobile device to get going! All you need is your library card number. Give us a call at (608) 337-4651 if you any questions.  


Join us for Story Time with Miss April on Monday, Jan. 30, at 11 a.m. This is a great way for your young children to socialize with other children. Each story time includes time to play with toys, explore the library, enjoy stories, and create a craft. Activities are designed for 3- to 5-year-olds, but younger and older siblings are welcome to attend as well.  


 Our annual Winter Reading Challenge started Jan. 4 and ends Feb. 28. This year, we challenge you to read or listen to as many books as you can before the end of February. We’ll provide cozy prizes along the way. Read or listen to five books and provide five written reviews to receive a hot chocolate packet. Read or listen to 10 books and provide 10 written reviews to receive a winter reading mug! Pick up review forms at the library or print from home at ontariolibrary.wrlsweb.org/programs


We’d like to congratulate Nellie on reading 200 books. Her goal is to read 1,000 books before kindergarten. Congrats, Nellie!
