Join us for our Local Authors Fair Sat., Jan. 17, 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. We are accepting author applications through Dec. 1.

The library will recognize the National Day of Listening on Nov. 28 by hosting family interviews. Community members can interview a family member while a trained volunteer operates the recording equipment. Participants will leave with a CD of the interview while the library keeps a copy to preserve for future generations. Interviews will last about 40 minutes, and the theme is "family." Families can book a one-hour time slot on Friday, Nov. 28, 1-5 p.m. or Saturday, Nov. 29, 10 a.m.-5 p.m. Register by calling the Ask Us Desk at 630/887-8760 ext. 239.
