Girls Who Code Session A
Location: Makerspace
Patrons in grades 3-5 are invited to join our Girls Who Code Club! We'll work on building community, confidence, and problem-solving skills while learning to code!
Girls Who Code is a non-profit organization that aims to support and increase the number of women in programming and computer science fields. While the curriculum is designed to focus on girls and consider "the biases that might impact their experiences" in the computer science field, boys interested in learning more about coding are welcome to join! Interested patrons should contact Rebecca O'Connor, Children's Librarian, at 304-842-8248 before attending the program.
Bridgeport Public Library
The Bridgeport Public Library is located in Bridgeport, WV. The City of Bridgeport began providing financial support for the library in the mid-1970s. The library was then located on the top floor of the Benedum Civic Center on Main Street. In 1994 the citizens and businesses of Bridgeport raised over 1.3 million dollars to purchase and renovate the Allstate Insurance building on Johnson Avenue. It then became the Bridgeport Public Library. The library offers a variety of services and resources including books, eBooks, audiobooks, movies, music, magazines, online databases, and more!
