Carol Stream Public Library

The library's main entrance will be closed starting Monday, July 7th due to the front landscaping project. Entrance will instead by through the west walkway through the children's early literacy area. Library hours will remain unchanged. Thank you for your understanding.

Renovation Update: The library's front entrance has been reopened. There is now no longer any need to use the fire escape entrance into Youth Services. (Which is now closed). #CarolStream #librarylife #DuPage

Shoutout to @CheckbookOrg for pointing out in their "65 Things You Should Never Pay For" that one of them is eBooks. Because your local library often provides them complimentary for you as a cardholder. Just like we do! #ebooks #library #librarylife

Did You Know? 🤔 You can add more than one library card on Libby. Try it today!

This was basically the plot to Back to the Future Part III. Except they busted the Delorean's fuel line and no one in 1885 had unleaded gasoline. Doc & Marty then tried high quality alcohol as a substitute and it destroyed the fuel injection manifold. #BacktotheFuture
