Graphic Novel Suggestions
Schaumburg Library Comic Con® is back! As such, we've had some of our librarians recommend some of their top picks when it comes to graphic novels.
Board President Receives Award
Congratulations to Library Board of Trustees President Anita Forte-Scott, who received the Special Districts Leadership in Technology Innovation Award from Government Technology, an AT&T program.
COVID-19 Vaccine Information
There's a lot of information — and misinformation — when it comes to COVID-19 and the vaccine. We've pulled together a list of resources to help you access information about testing locations and vaccine registration. Please keep in mind that information changes rapidly.
Valentine's Day Reads
Love it or hate it, it's Valentine's Day! Some of our librarians picked a few titles in our collection about love – romantic and not – and a few with some anti-Valentine's Day sentiments, too.

MLK Day Reads
Take a look at some of our staff picks in honor of civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr.'s life and achievements. We have titles for kids, teens and adults; fiction or nonfiction - there's a book for everyone.
One Book, One Community Reads
This year’s One Book, One Community titles were chosen because they offer an opportunity for individuals and families to discuss some compelling issues that we’re all facing right now. We hope the themes resonate with you as we all continue to live with a global pandemic and other issues that challenge us to cope with situations outside of our control, manage feelings of isolation and find new ways to connect with our families and communities.
In addition to Room, please take a look at some staff-recommended books with a focus on the theme of resilience.
