Library Happenings in 2023!
->
Notice: Valued patrons. The Elgin Public Library has our hours of operation posted here (Near the bottom of this page), as well as on the front of our library in multiple places. Please be aware that the library does not open earlier than listed, nor do we stay open after hours.
Please do not bang on windows or shake/pound on the library doors; if such actions cause damage, the camera footage will be forwarded to both city hall and the Union County Sheriff’s office.

COLORFUL NEWS!
\ Thanks to a gracious funding grant by the Libraries of Union County Foundation, we have been able to purchase a new color laser printer!
\ As of August 1st, 2023 we have color copies, faxes, and printing available. Please see below for our list of pricing rates for the use of these enhanced services!
\ This incredibly generous grant also enabled us to get a much-needed new router, UPS units, and a wireless handheld scanner to make checking in and out books easier during events and during library maintenance as well!
