Bloomington Library will be CLOSED Monday-Thursday, May 20-23.
The Bookmobile will make its stops during these closures. The Bookmobile schedule is available at bit.ly/bookmobileschedule.
This closure will allow us to continue to unbox 107,000 books (which were moved to storage when our construction project began) and to shelve 262,000 books. Some collections and areas of the library will not be available until the library reopens on Friday, May 24.
During open hours leading up to the closure, call 309.590.6120 or text 309.446.8398 with questions.
During the first half of this program, teens will work together to assemble four game show buzzers while learning about circuitry. Teens will use components such as: 3D-Printed pieces, micro:bits, arcade buttons, bit boards, maker tape, etc. They will also use Micro:Bit Makecode to program their buttons. Supplies will be provided.
Once the building is done, teens will put the buzzers to the test by participating in a trivia night pizza party!
Pizza and soda will be provided.
The program will take place in Community Room 2 at the library.
During the registration window for this program, registration can be completed online below, by calling 309.590.6168, or by visiting the Help Desk on the library's second floor and registering in person.
