Welcome to the 8th Annual IHLS Library Crawl! As a bibliophile, we know you will enjoy the interesting and beautiful buildings that house our library collections throughout central and southern Illinois.

Pick up your official passport from the Library, then visit 5 or more participating libraries throughout October to complete the Library Crawl.

Return your stamped passport to the Library by the end of October for a freebie and raffle entry for a gift card! Happy crawling!

Curious students in grades 2-5 are invited to join us for Wonder Club! At each monthly session, we’ll explore a different question and complete a hands-on activity to put learning into practice!

October’s topic is “What Are Stars Made Of?”

Register for either the early afternoon session or the later afternoon session. Both sessions will have the same topic and activities. Please register for ONE session.

Grades 2-5. Registration required.
