Yorkville Public Library is challenging the community to read a total of 20,000 minutes through February 26. This program is for readers of all ages. If the goal is met, a $100 donation from the Friends of the Library will be given to the Kendall County Food Pantry. Monetary donations are still the most effective because for every $1 donated they has the buying power of the Northern Illinois Food Bank to provide $8 worth of groceries to a neighbor need. Register yourself and/or family members on our website at YPL Reading Programs. Let’s work together to help others.

The Friends of the Yorkville Public Library which believes in the importance of the Library to the community and that organized support from concerned citizens contributes to the success of the Library’s programs and services.

The Friends hold their meetings on the second Monday of each month at 10:15 a.m., and currently meetings are being done on Zoom.

Its purpose is to focus attention on Library services and needs, help strengthen and expand library services, and do fund-raising. The funds raised by the friends are used for Library projects, programs, and the purchase of special equipment.

Supporters can make a difference in their community by becoming a Friend and support the Library!
