Explore the Suburbs! Starting Tuesday, May 26 through Saturday, September 5 discover the richness of your community this summer with the 2026 Library Passport Adventure! Visit 35 participating public libraries across the Chicago Suburbs and see what each one has to offer— unique collections, programs, spaces, and more.

How It Works:
-Pick up your Library Passport at your home library.
-Get your passport stamped each time you visit a new library.
-Check back at your home library with your library card and completed passport.
-For every 5 different libraries you visit, you’ll earn one raffle entry.
-Keep exploring all summer long—the more libraries you visit, the more chances to win!

Win Big!
At the end of the program, three participants will win a $100 Amazon Gift Card.

We hope you felt appreciated and cared for as we celebrated you, the mothers in our community. Mothers who built us, held us up, fought for us, and loved us unconditionally. 💐💐💐

“The best place to cry is on a mother's arms.”
― Jodi Picoult, House Rules

"Gilbert put his arm about them. 'Oh, you mothers!' he said. 'You mothers! God knew what He was about when He made you."
— L. M. Montgomery, Anne's House of Dreams

"Mama exhorted her children at every opportunity to ‘jump at de sun.’ We might not land on the sun, but at least we would get off the ground."
— Zora Neale Hurston, A Biography of the Spirit

“Motherhood is a choice you make every day, to put someone else's happiness and well-being ahead of your own, to teach the hard lessons, to do the right thing even when you're not sure what the right thing is...and to forgive yourself, over and over again, for doing everything wrong.”
― Donna Ball, At Home on Ladybug Farm
