ABC Community Room
(Activities, Books & Computers)


 

Originally opened in March 2002, the ABC Community Room is a wonderful resource for parents and child care providers. Beginning in January 2009, the Cambridge Public Library will house its Early Childhood Resource Center in the ABC Room Community Room. The Early Childhood Resource Room is made possible by funding from the Massachusetts Department of Early Education & Care. In the room you will find everything from children's books to curriculum kits to books on parenting. Thanks to a partnership with IBM Corporate Community Relations, the ABC Community Room also houses 10 adult computers with internet access and one children's computer.

The ABC Room continues to be a great resource for parents, expectant parents, family child care providers, child care center staff members, families considering their child care options, and other individuals looking for more information about early care and education. Materials cover a wide range of topics including parenting, curriculum planning, and special needs.

  • children's books
