Ever wonder what happens after your library materials go through the return slot? Get a behind-the-scenes look at how your items travel back to the shelves.
In celebration of Library Card Sign-Up Month, you’re invited to tour the Circulation workroom with library staff to see our automated return system in action. Watch how items are checked in and sorted before heading back out to the floor. The tour also includes a visit to our specialized Library of Things room to explore our unique collection of non-traditional items available for checkout.
All ages are welcome. Children ages 10 and younger must attend with an adult.
The Main Library is located in downtown Mount Prospect, next to Village Hall. The building houses an extensive collection of materials, spaces for quiet and collaborative work, several program rooms, public computers, a dedicated teen space, and engaging play area for children.
For a comprehensive list of all services available at the Main Library, please visit the library website.
