Library Card Information |
|
As an Elmwood Park resident, your library card gives you access to the latest best sellers, music, movies, software and magazines. Treat it carefully, it is a valuable asset. You are responsible for all materials checked out on your card. So please do not let another person use your card. Parents or guardians are responsible for determining the suitability of library materials for their children. Bring your library card with you when you visit the library. If your card should become lost or stolen, please report it promptly by calling (708) 453-7645. Your Elmwood Park library card can open a new and exciting world of resources to you! Our online catalog (http://swan.mls.lib.il.us) is available 23 hours a day and may be accessed from anywhere you have Internet availability. You can search and place holds at your convenience, not just during Library hours. If you need help in finding material or have any questions, please ask our friendly staff. We are here to help you.
