Get Help With Homework at Limestone Township Library District

We are back into the groove of school days and that means projects!

No matter what the subject, our library can help you out.

Try out the e-resources by browsing through World Book Online. This company has four different learning levels so that a high schooler isn’t using the same platform as their grade school counterpart nor is a kindergartener overwhelmed by a higher reading level. You can use World Book Online in the library on the public access computers or at home with your library card.

Another reliable source for information is Consumer Reports. Most of us know this publication as an unbiased source for reviews on any product you can think of. They also have articles on a variety of topics written in the same manner as their reviews. You do need a library card to access this e-resource.

Tumble books contains a plethora of ebooks for children in primary and intermediate grades. Tumble books gives readers the option to read picture books out loud or listen to a recording of the story. It is possible to read graphic novels meant for primary and intermediate school aged children. There are games and songs and videos to watch as well.

We can also help students find source material for papers they need to write, whether it is from our library or another within the Prairiecat consortium. If you need pizazz for a poster display, check out our die-cuts that can be used in the library to create visual interest.

For students aged 5-17 who live in the Herscher school district but not in Limestone Township, Kankakee, or Fossil Ridge library districts, it is possible to get  a Non-Resident Cards for Kids library card. This will give children who normally wouldn’t have access to a library card an option to utilize the library to its fullest.

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.
