McHenry Public Library District

Greetings, Thank you for your interest in getting a Library card. All the information on how to get a card can be found here: http://mchenrylibrary.org/index.php/use-the-library/library-cards/get-renew-a-library-card Best!

Hi Glen, Yes, the Library is open to the public. We offer almost all the same pre-pandemic services, except we still have social distancing spacing between our computers and tables/seating, and our young kids' play area is closed.

Hi Eloise, check out the app Libby on Android or iPhone. Register with your library card and you can see the world of ebooks, and audiobooks available. If one isn't available to borrow, you can place a hold and Libby will notify when it is available.

We offer virtual programming. Check our online Events Calendar.

Aarp taxaide program has been cancelled for the tax year. . The library has also been closed. You will need to find a preparer or do them yourself. Forms can be found on irs.gov, and there may be a free tax preparation software you can use.

Usually, you don't need a library card to access one of their computers.

Yes!

Yes! Usually at least once a week. Check the event calendar on their web page for times and detail.

Yes they are.

Yes. It's called half price fines. It was just this past February. I'm not sure if the library will do another one. If they do it will be posted inside,on the front sign also online and the newsletter that everyone in the district gets regardless of whether they have a card or not.
