For kids we have Paws for Tales, Story Salsa with Liz Mangual at both Downtown Library and Redwood Shores Branch Library, as well as our Makerspace programs. And there's so much more!

For kids and teens we have Kid Makers, Crafty Wednesdays, Pop-up Chemistry, Teen Makers and Family Makers. You can find these programs for kids, teens, adults, and Spanish speakers on our Makerspace page.
STORYTIMES
We have something for everyone with our Storytimes! Tiny Tales is perfect for babies under 1 year old. We have Preschool Storytime at each of our locations: Downtown Library, Redwood Shores Branch Library and Schaberg Branch Library. If you can't make it during the day, come to our Pajama Time Stories in the evening at Downtown or Redwood Shores. We have bilingual Storytimes for Spanish speakers and learners too.

Do you have questions about your library card? We have answers to frequently asked questions:
Why does my library card expire?
Library cards expire every three years to ensure your account is up-to-date. Renewing your card is easy: bring photo identification and proof of your current home address to any public library in San Mateo County. Library staff will renew your card in just a few minutes. If there are no changes to your account, we can renew your card by phone. If you have any questions or are unable to come in, contact us.
Do you charge late fines?
No! Redwood City Public Library items are fines free.
How many items can I check out?
Up to 50 items may be borrowed on your library account
How long can I keep my items?
Most items check out for 3 weeks. DVDs are for 1 week.
What if I haven't finished by the due date?
If your item has no holds placed on it, it automatically renews for another 3 weeks or 1 week for DVDs (and up to 5 times).
