From the Director:

Did You Know?

Holiday Cards for the Troops For the third year, the Green Hills Public Library District has partnered with AdoptaPlatoon in order to send signed and decorated holiday cards to United States servicemen and servicewomen currently stationed overseas.

The partnership was proposed by James Kruse of Palos Hills, Director of the Hickory Hills branch of AdoptaPlatoon, a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting deployed troops and military families. Come to the Library to sign a card to show your support. If you are interested in getting involved in AdoptaPlatoon, please visit their website at adoptaplatoon.org.

Dear Library Community, November and December are busy months with Thanksgiving and Christmas approaching, and I understand it is easy to overlook those Library materials checked out during a less busy time. The Library is offering an opportunity to reduce or eliminate fines during the month of November by dropping off unexpired canned goods. These items will be donated to the Palos Township Food Pantry. A win-win situation!

Wondering what to do with the children over the holidays? Don’t forget to bring them to the Library for our “Bored over Break” programs. There will be crafts, Xbox, and board games, or they can sit and watch a movie on our big screen TV. The possibilities are endless!

Thinking about getting a Nook or Kindle? Test drive the Library’s first; we have a great selection of fiction and nonfiction titles for everyone.

Whatever you are doing this holiday season, staff send their best wishes to you and your families.

Election Day Just a friendly reminder, Election Day is Tuesday, November 3. V oting hours are 6am–7pm. If the Library is your polling place we will have our Digital Lounge open for your convenience! Visit cookcountyclerk.com/elections for more information on the election.
