About the magazines

The Curriculum Department has a number of children's magazines available to check out.  These magazines are published for children, but are a good resource for lesson plans, as well.  In addition to this, they are also beneficial for people who are learning the English language.

Below, you will find a list of all of the children's magazines that the department subscribes to.  These physical copies can be found near the Curriculum Meeting Room. 

Included for each title is a link to the physical holdings at the library, links to Electronic Resources information (if applicable) for each title, a link for the magazines website (if applicable), as well as broad subject areas and recommended audiences for each title.

There are a number of children's magazines available as Electronic Resources that are not available in print form here at the library.  To locate all of those titles, as well as the titles that are listed on this page, click here.
