Forsyth County Library Spotlights: Clemmons Branch Library – A Modern Library Designed for Learning, Playing and Connecting

Last month, I shared about the amazing Central Library in downtown Winston-Salem. For the second library showcase in this series, I’m sharing a location that your children will fall in love with – the Clemmons Branch Library. As this library is only four years old, it has some of the latest amenities and technology.

Maximum Learning & Fun

Outside of the many books on the shelves in the children’s area of this library, there are so many fun things to play with and learn from here. At the end of most of the shelves are interactive toys that teach information like the difference between fruits and vegetables.

There are two kids’ tables with kid-sized chairs that provide coloring pages and crayons. These are also great spaces for kids to work on school projects or other assignments.

In the back corner at the decorative “tree” are multiple sections with kid-friendly computers filled with interactive and educational games. There are even fun games for the youngest learners.

Finally, there are many toys that are fun to keep little minds and hands busy. This is great for parents who have both younger and older children!

Multiple Spaces Available

This library has several different types of spaces you can rent, for free, for your business or educational needs. Options include:

Three small meeting rooms for 10 to 14 people
Conference room for up to 29 people
Auditorium for up to 93 people
Children’s rooms

You can either call the library directly at 336.703.2920 or ask in person for additional details to book one of these spaces.

Beautiful Outdoor Area

Want some fresh air to read your books or work on your laptop? The Clemmons Branch Library doesn’t disappoint. Behind the library is a beautiful outdoor area that has benches, a unique butterfly sculpture, a pergola and a large grassy area for kids to run around and burn off that pent up energy after reading.

Additional Offerings

In addition to an impressive children’s area, there is also a room for teenagers. There are plenty of age-appropriate books and seating. In the main area of the library, there are multiple computers for patrons and tons of comfortable seating throughout.
