IPPL card-holders who participate in designated Junction programs will earn entries into monthly and grand prize drawings, donated by the Friends of IPPL. Congratulations to our July winner, Richard Koszyk of Darien!
Reminder: there is no limit to the number of computer classes you can take this summer!
