Story Hour, a distinctively American import in French libraries, becomes a popular activity among young patrons. Claire Huchet, a French librarian trained in San Francisco and London, inaugurates Story Hour in November 1923, recounting three tales for the occasion: “The Three Wishes,” by Mme de Beaumont; a Provençal fairy tale; and Grimm’s classic “The Little Brother and the Little Sister.”
Starting on Saturday 16 January, the Library will close each night at 18h in accordance with the new national curfew.
On Saturday and Sunday, the Library will open early to compensate for the reduced evening hours.
Tue–Fri: 10h–18h | Sat: 9h30–18h | Sun: 12h–18h | Mon: Closed
