6 UNIQUE THINGS TO DO AT FOUNTAINDALE PUBLIC LIBRARY
When you think of libraries, you likely think of checking out books and attending events. And while there’s no shortage of both of those at Fountaindale Public Library, they have a world of resources and services that will help inspire lifelong learning, foster creativity and connecta you with your community. You might be surprised at all the fascinating things you can do at the library, so here are six to get you started. 1. RENEW YOUR LICENSE PLATE STICKER Renewing your license plate shouldn’t be an allday event—and now it doesn’t have to be. Visit Fountaindale seven days a week to purchase your vehicle sticker in just minutes. You will need to bring your Illinois vehicle registration renewal notice sent by the Secretary of State, current registration card or Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) and your current driver’s license or ID. A $7.50 service fee—and a three percent transaction fee if paying by credit card—will be applied to each sticker. 2. GET FREE OR DISCOUNTED MUSEUM PASSES Does your family enjoy visiting Brookfield Zoo, LEGOLAND Discovery Center, Cantigny Park and Naper Settlement? How about visiting them for free

or at a discounted price? With the library’s Museum Adventure Pass, you can do just that! Simply stop by the Circulation Desk in their lobby to check out a pass using your library card. Passes are first-come, first-served as there are a limited number of passes for each participating organization. 3. DIGITIZE YOUR PHOTOS AND OLD MOVIES Do you have a pile of VHS tapes (or even 8mm film) full of memories like your baby’s first steps or that first wobbly bicycle ride down the sidewalk? How about old photos, negative or even slides? Using the library’s VHS to DVD converter or their Epson photo scanner, you can digitize and preserve your memories in Studio 300 before the ravishes of time deteriorate these media types of yesteryear.
