After School at Joslin - Fall 2026
9/8 - 10/20
Mondays* and Tuesdays when school is in session
2:30-4:30

*Please note the switch from Thursdays to Mondays this year

We’re excited to announce that After School is back for a fall session! This year, Rachel Alberico will be in charge of programming. You might know Rachel from her Wednesday morning volunteer shift and helping out with D&D, and now we’re delighted to have her take the reins on After School!

Please take a moment to read these reminders about After School at Joslin:
In accordance with library policy, participants must be 8 years or older OR attend with a responsible caregiver (16 years or older). While our After School program is not traditional childcare, it’s a great opportunity to foster independence, familiarity and ownership of our library, and have fun using library resources with friends! This program happens during regular Library hours and other patrons will be using the space. Before your child’s first time at After School, please have a conversation to set expectations for their time at the Library. There is no registration for this program; Rachel will have a sign-in sheet at arrival. Please reach out to Anna with any questions: [email protected].
