LIBRARY CLOSURE

Bloomington Library will be CLOSED Monday, May 13 through 5pm on Thursday, May 16.

  • The library will be closed ALL DAY from May 13-15.
  • The library will open at 5pm on May 16.

The Bookmobile will make its stops during these closures. Find the Bookmobile schedule at bit.ly/bookmobileschedule.

The closure will allow us to begin to bring back and shelve 3,500 boxes of books which were moved to storage when our construction project began. Additional closures will be necessary and will be announced as details develop. Some collections may not be available until the move is complete.

During open hours, call 309.590.6120 or text 309.446.8398 with questions.

Program Description

--- Have you wondered about the benefits of using compost and composting food and yard waste?
--- Do you live in an apartment or shared housing and think that composting is not something you can do? 
--- Would you like to get started but don't know how?

If you answered "yes" to any of those questions, then you'll want to attend this free program presented by the Ecology Action Center.

Registration is only required for those who wish to attend virtually through Zoom. Registration can be completed online below, by calling 309.590.6168, or by visiting the Help Desk on the Library's 2nd floor. Those attending in person DO NOT need to register.
