We like to hear from our library members about our resources, collections, programming and staff. We are grateful for the kind words recently shared with us: 1, 2022
"My husband and I moved to Warrenville in 1981 and there have been a lot of changes since then. One of the changes I loved was when the library was expanded and again when it was enlarged to its present size. All the new services it offers are very impressive and I use as many as I can. Since I am homebound the ability to download books is amazing. The catalog has a great selection of books and can access other libraries using the SWAN system to locate a book that your library doesn't have. If I need any assistance or any questions, the staff is always helpful and friendly. Keep up the good work."

June 1–July 31 • All ages

Challenge yourself to read beyond the beaten path this summer. Read or listen to whatever interests you, and encourage your family and friends to do the same. We have great gifts for meeting your challenge (6 hours for kids and teens; 10 hours for adults) and chances to win a grand prize if you go beyond the challenge.

To get started on your challenge, register at Beanstack, a reading software app and web platform. Beanstack is an easy way to log and track your reading or listening time wherever you are. If you have little ones, it's a great way to track participation by everyone in the family. You can also use a paper reading log.
