This is the source of the grants La Grange Park Library receives through the Illinois State Library. In past years, we have used grant funds to present programming for our residents, such as e-readersâ, last year's "You and Your Government" series of programs and this year's "Enriching Livesä with Ancestral Ties" genealogy programs. Please help keep this extra source of funds available to all libraries by contacting your senator.
