From Saturday, September 28, through Tuesday, October 1, online services will be limited due to planned server maintenance to add the Mount Prospect and Waukegan Public Libraries to our library network. After the two new libraries are added, 550,000 new materials will be available in the collection for you to enjoy.

Join us on 9/21 at 2pm for an inspiring look at the rise, reign, and legacy of Chicago's first Black mayor, followed by a Q&A with the film's director. 

Last week, as part of our standard procedures, the Northbrook Public Library reached out to the cardholder who reserved a meeting room for a film screening on Wednesday, September 18. This follow-up was conducted to verify compliance with the Library's established reservation requirements.

A Northbrook resident and Library cardholder has reserved a room at Northbrook Public Library on Wednesday, September 18 for a ticketed film screening to be hosted by The Chicagoland Jewish Labor Bund and JVP (Jewish Voice for Peace) Chicago. This is not a Northbrook Public Library-sponsored or -facilitated event.

We have received many emails and calls about this event. We respect and acknowledge that there are members of our community who may disagree with the views of the organizations hosting this screening and/or the views presented in the film.
