Skokie Public Library

Once again, it is too hot to enjoy the library Mr. Chang. I hope your are not on levothyroxin: it makes you cold and afraid. Thanks Elle Russ. Please boycott AI AG whatever you call it. Thanks. I still volentee r to call everyone who has overdue items for free. Fool one more senior or one more child with those auto dial calls and it would be a damn shame. Thanks.

This is one of the best libraries I have been to. You can check out books, dvds, household supplies. There is a massive kids area and a cafe and courtyards when the weather is nice

Very rude and disrespectful. Even though have ID and account info, doesn’t allow to check out books within library system. Says that needs an updated library card to prove I am who I am. Oh, it this same place allows you to literally vote in elections WITHOUT any ID. Tell me how this makes sense? Library policy is made up on the spot and I can truly tell they are not to help people.

This library is huge, it almost looks like a museum when you walk inside. It’s very spacious with a modern design, but you still get a cozy, welcoming feeling upon entering. The perfect vibe for a library. They offer tons of free classes like sewing classes, 3D printing, etc. They have many different sections for you to choose your perfect reading spot. I have spent hours here reading, crocheting, taking my son to the big play room and doing the fun activities they offer for kids too like scavenger hunts and classes.

This place is good and organized. There’s a kid section, teen volunteering opportunities online and good books and events. This is better then Evanston library which is the opposite. However if you come through Laramie you need to wait for traffic on Oakton before you can cross which could be long.

Been awhile since last time I visited- phenomenal updates. The library has been drastically redesigned to support public accessibility. Absolutely beautiful, a masterwork in public access.

Staff is nice and the facility has so much to offer! We love spending time exploring and the selection is huge!

This library is an amazing facility! The staff are hospitable, helpful, and knowledgeable. The place has everything you could need, from books, comics, dvds, and video games, to study rooms, and studios for recording podcasts and music. I wish I could give it 10 stars!

I had a very pleasant experience here at Skokie Public Library. It’s pretty huge, organized and well maintained.

We absolutely love the Skokie Library. My son has been reading since he was 30 months old, and the Children’s Room has been one of the most meaningful places where his love of reading has truly flourished. The book selections are thoughtfully curated and beautifully organized, making it easy to discover something new each visit. The staff are exceptional—welcoming, knowledgeable, and dedicated to creating outstanding programming, some of the very best in the area.
