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.
Books- A large collection of teen fiction, nonfiction, graphic novels, manga, new teen reads, award-winning novels, and Playaway devices* are available on the 2nd floor in Community Room 1. All teen material remains available to place on hold.
(*Playaways are small, user-friendly devices which are pre-loaded with a single audiobook and are perfect for on-the-go listening without worrying about having an internet connection, a CD player, or downloading files.)
4 Gaming PCs are currently set up in the teenZone but the games are not currently equipped.
Teens are welcome to use laptops and computers in Adult Services or from the teenZone.
