A summer reading champion since he was one, Adrian is reading 100 books a year—and finding his voice at the Budlong Woods branch, one program at a time.

With Lead Corporate support from Allstate and other generous donors, YOUmedia is a safe space for teens to collaborate with other teens on creative projects, and gain skills they can apply in school and in life.
Access to free, high-quality summer learning programs is more critical today than ever before. Together, Chicago Public Library, Chicago Public Library Foundation and WITS will empower thousands of Chicago families to fight the COVID learning slide by connecting them to an unparalleled network of educational services and supports.
Summer is not canceled! It may look a little different this year, the Library’s Summer Learning Challenge is here to keep children active, creative, and learning all summer long.
Back-to-school transition can be a heart-racing, stomach-churning, palm-sweating event for children and parents. But don’t worry, Chicago Public Library has got you covered.
Thanks to summers at the library, Mia is turning her curiosity into creativity.
Thanks to you, thousands of kids enjoy a full summer of books, experiments, fieldtrips, performances, workshops, and more!
