While the children themselves are the most obvious beneficiaries of library programs and services for the very young, the programs produce other positive results. Parents and caregivers who attend storytimes for the very young “report that doing so provides quality time for them to be with their children. It makes them feel good because they know they are doing something beneficial for both themselves and their children. Adults also report that they just plain enjoy coming together with other people to share the joys of books, songs and finger games.”[i]
