Would you like to be part of the “Snapshot of a Day in the Life of Libraries?”

On Wed., Feb. 10, we’re going to be photographing a day in the life of IPPL. Stop by the library sometime during that day and you may be featured in one of our “snapshots.”

If you’d like to write a few words about how important our library is to you and your family, please send us a comment today.  Tell us about a time the library made a difference to you and your life.  We’ll be using these to enhance the photo story. This collection of images and stories is being developed in partnership with the Illinois Library Association to demonstrate the value of libraries to our legislators as they allocate funds.
