The Villa Park Public Library will be closed to the public beginning on Tuesday, March 26 and will tentatively reopen Monday, April 15. Visit their website for additional updates. http://www.vppl.info/buildingprojectupdates/
Library staff will be working during this time, but the library items will not be available for holds or circulation during the public closure.
The following thank you and invitation is from Allyson Withers, Library Director, Dolton Public Library District -
I would like to personally thank all of our 'sister-libraries' who have assisted the Dolton Public Library District patrons during our library interior renovation project. The library will be having a Grand Re-Opening for the public and community on Saturday, March 30th, 2019 from 11:00 am to 1:00 pm. Hopefully, many we be able to come and view the new interior.
Although, library staff will be setting up items and getting acclimated and transitioning to the new library, it will not officially be open for business until Monday, April 8th, 2019.
Again, I would like to thank all my colleagues for their assistance and patience during this period.
Congratulations on the reopening Allyson, Dolton Public Library District staff, and the community. We look forward to seeing you and your library!
