Giving Opportunities at Limestone Township Library District

As the holiday season approaches, so does colder weather. Not everyone is fortunate enough to have what they need to stay warm while outside.

This is also the season of giving. And there are many opportunities for people to give. At Limestone Township Library District, you have the ability to fill the donation box for winter coats in our lobby from the Herscher High School National Honor Society. All sizes are being accepted. The public can bring in winter coat donations from now until Friday, December 6.

Another way that you can give is by filling up the Limestone Township Library District’s Mitten Tree. Every year we place a tree in our lobby to be covered with mittens, gloves, hats, and scarves to help keep away the cold weather chills. Bring your donations to the Front Desk. All donations from the Mitten Tree will be given to the Herscher School District after December 31.

If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the library at 815-939-1696.

Check out our upcoming programing.

As the holidays draw nearer, we are preparing for our big event–Evening with Santa on December 2. We will have two sessions (5:30 and 6:45) available to make visiting with Santa that much easier. All registration will be In-Person only (no registrations by phone, or messaging through email or Facebook/Instagram accepted). Registration will only pertain to your household.
