With concerns about COVID-19, unpredictable weather, and the notion that being home with a good book is really nice, there are plenty of reasons why accessing library materials from home is a great idea! If you can’t get the library for whatever reason, don’t worry. The Ipswich Public Library has a number of resources that can be accessed from home.
Below are some of our more popular programs, but visit our recently updated and expanded Online Resources page to see the full range of offerings for all ages (there are too many to include here!).
