Find Big Books at Limestone Township Library District!

Every library you go into has a display of books. They might be mysteries or a historical subject or a fun activity. At Limestone Township Library District, we took many of our coffee table books and put them on display. We were surprised to see so many as well as the topics they covered.

The large books include local history, Illinois history, various wars from the Civil War to the Vietnam War, artists such as Whistler and Renoir, and Ripley’s Believe It or Not. Some are reference books and not available for check out but most books can go home with you for two weeks when checked out on your library card.

Stop in to see our large book display.

Check out our program calendar when you stop in.

Storytime takes place every Wednesday at 10:15 A.M. with Mr. William reading a picture book or two and leading us through a fun craft matching the theme of the book.

 Come for fun on Thursday, August 10th from 5:30 P.M. – 7:30 P.M. for our Family Video Game Party. We will have on hand Super Smash Bothers Ultimate, Mario Kart and Guitar Hero. Feel free to bring your own Nintendo Switch and joycons! Snacks will be provided.

Writer's Group will be held on Tuesday, August 22 at 6:30 P.M. A writer's group is a community of writers who come together to share their work, provide feedback, and support each other in their writing endeavors. It can be a great way to improve your writing skills, get inspiration, and connect with other writers.

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.
