WHAT'S NEW?
We now have a Self-Checkout station near the adult circulation desk.  Give it a try for your quick checkouts and renewals (not for use with check-ins, financial transactions, or holds).  It’s very simple to use and we’re happy to help you give it a try today!

The Library now has two telescopes for checkout on valid Adult Edwardsville Library cards.  Come in and get the tips to use these great new items (provided by the Edwardsville Library Friends) for a fun family night.

Did you know the City of Edwardsville has developed a new app?  The “Experience Edwardsville” app is a great way to keep informed about weekly events, local food and drink, and places to visit.  Download for free at your app store today and  check out the library under “Events” and “Historical.”
