“Travel” to Marshall Public Library for some Summer Reading Fun!  

A good book is a window into another place, another time, another life.  Join us as we venture out on this year’s reading journey—“Have Book Will Travel!”

Sign up for Marshal Public Library’s summer reading program beginning on May 20th, and start your reading journey!  Reading incentives and a wide variety of programs are planned for all ages – even adults!!

Would you like one-on-one help to learn how to use the Internet or other technology?

Connecting Generations mentoring program can help! This free program matches adults with student volunteers to learn technology and is a community partnership between Marshall Public Library, Marshall High School, Harlan Hall, the local University of Illinois extension, and East Central Illinois Development Corporation. One-on-one mentoring sessions are conducted at the library with library computers or you may bring your own laptop, Ipad, ereader, etc.

Learn internet skills such as how to send and receive pictures and emails, stay in contact with friends or family who no longer live close by, explore interesting websites to search for weather, health information, news, and much more. Or learn more about your e-reader or cell phone! For more information or to set up a mentoring appointment, call the library today at 217 - 826 - 2535.

We invite children of all ages to the library for a monthly craft program every third Saturday.  Drop in the library for a simple craft and a story between 10:30 and 11:30 AM.  Saturday Kids Craft is a free program.  Registration is not necessary.  For more information, please call the library.  Join the fun!

Come to Marshall Public Library for information about how to prepare for the GED online using the library’s computers in partnership with Lake Land College Adult Education. Join over 10,000 students in Illinois and other states who have prepared to take their GED exam by studying online with GED-i, an online preparation course.

Everyone is invited to our “Coffee Chat” book discussion group every third Wednesday at 10:15 AM.   This is an informal and fun time to share your thoughts on the books you are reading and your favorite authors.  Bring a friend and join the conversation on the third Wednesday of every month.  Coffee and tea will be served in the library activity room.  Call the library at 826-2535 for more information.
