We're excited to let you know (and remind you) that Transparent Language Online is available to all Bensenville cardholders.

With over 110 languages to choose from, you can learn at home, in the library, or on the go. Reading, writing, listening, and speaking activities will help you learn the words and phrases needed to communicate effectively in a foreign language.

Some events require registration, and spots may fill quickly. We recommend reserving your place for any programs you’d like to attend soon.

A friendly reminder that our Summer Reading Kick-Off is happening on Friday, June 5th at 5:00 PM. Miss Jamie's Farm will be with us to sing and dance some fun barn tunes, and Fischer Farm will bring some very cute animals for everyone to pet! We’ll also have crafts and the opportunity to sign up for Summer Reading if you haven’t registered yet when sign-ups begin June 1.

We hope to see you at the library soon!

R.F. Kuang’s genre-bending fiction broaches ordinarily serious topics from a satirical and fantastical perspective. Academic yet approachable, Kuang’s work combines history, magic, and classical literary tradition to render powerful critiques of academia, the publishing industry, and even contemporary popular culture.

Kelly Jensen, an anti-censorship advocate, a senior editor at Book Riot, and writer who has compiled such anthologies as Here We Are: Feminism for the Real World and (Don’t) Call Me Crazy, will be joining Kuang in conversation.

This event is intended for adults.

ILP is committed to inclusion and accessibility. American Sign Language (ASL) interpretation and Closed Captioning are provided for all events by default—no special request needed.

Help support pets in need! 🐾

We are holding a Pet Supply Drive through May 27th to benefit the DuPage County Animal Services. We are collecting new, unopened, and unused pet supplies to help support the shelter and the animals in their care.

Our TLC students have also been hard at work creating handmade snuffle mats and small blankets to donate alongside the collected supplies. 💙

Donations can be dropped off at the library during regular hours. Thank you for helping us make a difference for local shelter animals!
