The Meridian Library's Cherry Lane location is open for limited services. To ensure social distancing, we will only allow 5 patrons in the main portion of the library and 8 patrons in the computer lab at any given time. All patrons must wear a face mask. Beginning June 1, we will also offer contactless pickup of library items at our Silverstone branch. Learn more

Our Story
The Tiny Library is an interactive learning library aimed at children ages 0-5 to help kids be ready to read when they enter kindergarten. Items and activities are focused on ages 0-5 (board books, Easy Readers and picture books) with a small Parent-Teacher collection. Collections and interactive activities are focused on the five early learning practices: talk, play, sing, write, read.
Items from other MLD locations and Lynx Consortium libraries may be returned at the Tiny Library during open hours. Please note: holds pick-up is not available at this location.
