How Do I?


Get a Library Card

Your library card allows you to:

  • Borrow books from us and from most other public libraries in Illinois.
  • Use special online collections to find magazine articles and information you can’t get just by searching the web.
  • Another thing.

To get a library card, bring a form of picture identification and proof of your current address to the library. Our district services anyone who lives within the Newark Grade School District within Kendall County.


Renew Books

To renew books and other items, bring the items in for renewal, call the library at 815-695-5851, or renew by using the online catalog.
