The Library is a member of the Illinois Heartland Library System.  The system provides access to many of the surrounding libraries.  Your library card is good at any of the participating libraries.  For a complete listing of the libraries included, check out the system web page.  If you cannot find a specific title at our library, the library can borrow that material from another library for you, or you can borrow it through the SHARE catalog on the system web page.  We can also request items from outside the system/state using OCLC.  Inquire at the library if you have any questions.
 
The library provides access to federal and state tax forms and booklets.  If we do not have the form on site, we can make photocopies or printouts of the forms for a fee.
 
The library employees are Deputy Registrars.  We can assist Illinois residents in registering to vote or correcting current voter registrations.
 
The library currently has the following material formats: books, audiobooks on CD, read-along book sets, magazines, CDs, DVDs, downloadable Audiobooks and downloadable E-books.
