Past years of the local paper are available on microfilm for viewing in the library. We have a genealogy section, an Illinois History section, and a Reference section as well as extensive holdings on the Civil War. Patrons may sign up to reserve popular titles. We carry large-print books and have access to Talking Books. Videos and audios are available to be checked out.
Computers are available for research, typing, and Internet use.
We host a preschool children's story hour Friday during the school year. Please send us your feedback or comments. Funding for this site was provided through a grant awarded by the Illinois State Library, a Division of the Office of Secretary of State, using federal Library Services and Technology Act funding.
