Bloomington Library will be CLOSED Monday-Thursday, May 20-23.
The Bookmobile will make its stops during these closures. The Bookmobile schedule is available at bit.ly/bookmobileschedule.
This closure will allow us to continue to unbox 107,000 books (which were moved to storage when our construction project began) and to shelve 262,000 books. Some collections and areas of the library will not be available until the library reopens on Friday, May 24.
During open hours leading up to the closure, call 309.590.6120 or text 309.446.8398 with questions.
During a PopUp Library, Bloomington Library staff offer library services at specific sites away from the Main Library. Staff at each PopUp Library lend materials to patrons, create and renew library cards, and assist with other library-related resources and questions.
Community agencies or businesses throughout the City of Bloomington and the Golden Prairie Public Library District (Arrowsmith, Bloomington, Dale, Dawson and Old Town Townships) are eligible to apply to host a PopUp Library site.
This service is provided free of charge to eligible sites.
Schedules vary per location, but PopUp services are generally held once or twice per month at each site. When the service date falls on a holiday, an alternate date will be determined.
