Hello Library Friends,
The adult services remodeling project is complete and looks great. I encourage everyone in the community to check out our changes! We have laptops for the adults and additional computers for the youth area. Come in, grab something to read and enjoy the new reading nooks.
Take a look at our new online services for our members. Cardholders are now able to download e-books via our website. If you have a Kindle, Nook, tablet or smart phone then start downloading your favorite reads! We now have a variety of databases for our public. These databases feature a live tutoring center for homework help; legal forms, automotive help, and various employment resources.
These are all at the disposal of Steger-South Chicago Heights cardholders. Come in today, get your library card and get started from the privacy of your home. Remember, if you need help it’s only a phone call or email away.
