Find Summer Fun at Limestone Township Library District!

We have plenty of summer left. There’s time to play, explore, or read books that take us to a different worlds.

We have giant yard games such as Giant Connect Four, Large Tumbling Tower and big dice. We have binoculars to help you see far away, and a microscope to help you see things up close. Use our Bug Jug to collect bugs and see how they move and eat before releasing them back to the wild.

Grab one of our Discovery Boxes or SOAR bags for fun activities based on a singular theme such as magnets or bunnies.

Families can plan movie nights with our DVD collection or begin reading classic juvenile novels together. There is so much to spark the imagination at the library.

Check out our program calendar when you stop in.

You don’t have to have a library card to attend our programming. But if you want to check out books, the process for getting a card is simple. Stop in with your Driver’s license or State ID and a piece of mail to verify your address. Persons under the age of 18 will need a parent’s signature. If you live outside of Limestone Township but not in another library district (such as Fossil Ridge or Kankakee), you may need to pay a non-resident fee.
