I am excited to share that our library was one of the 60 libraries awarded a security grant from the State of Illinois. This grant will fund a variety of measures to increase the safety for everyone at the library. We are continuously grateful for the level of support public libraries receive in the State of Illinois and look forward to further improving our wonderful library.

-Bianca Sierra, Library Director

Libraries across the Quad Cities region are receiving state funding through a $27 million Illinois library investment program.
