In order to move forward, it's important to take a look back – and we've had quite the year at the Schaumburg Library!
We have a staff of trained librarians here to help you find your next favorite book.
The first floor of the Central Library is the home of our fiction titles, and the librarians who work there are especially good at "readers advisory" – meaning we'll put a novel in your hands that you're going to love.
Be a member of the Library's executive board!
We're looking for applicants to fill a vacated seat, serving a term that runs through May 2021.
