The library may be known as a place for free, fun programs and interesting books, but did you know you can find more than just books at the library? It's true! You can find a quick summary of our fun, not-book items by visiting this page.

Walkertown Branch Library has Playaway Launchpad tablets available to borrow (for more information on the borrowing policy, click here). Launchpads come pre-loaded with educational content and are easy to use. They don't require Wi-Fi connection and are 100% secure.
