Community of Learning
CILC and its content providers have come together to provide core curriculum every day of the week for homebound students in grades K-6th. This service includes free of charge, interactive, live-streamed programs from 9:30am to 3:30pm Eastern time. The programs are delivered by their highly professional content providers. Registration coming soon!
Please register, by Grade Level, by clicking on the button below each section. Once you have registered you will receive a link from Zoom with connection information in it. You also will get a reminder 24 hours before the event and 1 hour before the event. Attention Educators: It is important for each student to be registered by their parent rather than you. Each sign up generates a unique link to join the program and sharing links can cause issues. Parents will receive the join link in an email from Zoom 1 day before the program, as well as 1 hour before.

Please note: some of these vendors are extending extra resources during the public shutdown. While we expect to continue to work with most of these vendors, some services may be adjusted when the shutdown concludes.
Books and materials you have checked out will not accrue any fines during the library’s closure. We will post about reopening as soon as we have that information.
Questions? We’re here to help
Union Library staff are working remotely during the 2020 shutdown. Email Staff@HatboroLibrary.org with issues or questions about e-library resources, your account, or questions about anything.
