Bloomington Library will be CLOSED Monday, May 13 through 5pm on Thursday, May 16.
The Bookmobile will make its stops during these closures. Find the Bookmobile schedule at bit.ly/bookmobileschedule.
The closure will allow us to begin to bring back and shelve 3,500 boxes of books which were moved to storage when our construction project began. Additional closures will be necessary and will be announced as details develop. Some collections may not be available until the move is complete.
During open hours, call 309.590.6120 or text 309.446.8398 with questions.
Calling all knights of the square table! Come to the Children's Department for an informal chess drop-in event. All levels of chess skills are welcome! Bring a friend to play with or come to meet a new checkmate (Ha ha! We couldn't help ourselves). The library will provide a limited number of chess sets for patrons to use. Please feel free to bring your own chess set and board. This program is perfect for kids ages 5-12 and their caregivers.
Questions about this program can be emailed to Clare at childrensstaff@bloomingtonlibrary.org.
