New AWE Learning Tablets Coming Soon!

We are excited to announce that Gleason Memorial Library is receiving a $4,960 Edge Technology Grant from the Oklahoma Department of Libraries and the Institute of Museum and Library Services. The grant provides for the purchase of two children’s learning tablets. The library is dedicated to offering technology to help improve the digital skills of even our youngest patrons.

The tablets are filled with trustworthy software covering art, math, reading, science, and more providing fun and entertaining learning opportunities. The two tablets from AWE Learning–the Early Literacy Station for ages 4-8 and the After School Edge for ages 6-12 each contain 70 plus software titles providing over 4000 multi-curriculum and STREAM (Science, Technology, Reading & wRiting, Engineering, Arts, Mathematics) activities.

Tablets will be kept at the library’s circulation desk and will be checked out for 30-minute periods for use in-house. Time will be extended if there are no other requests.
