We had so much fun at National Senior Health & Fitness Day!

The annual all-agency event at the Arlington Heights, IL Senior Center attracted over 140 older adults who participated in a wide range of health screenings, fitness classes and explored resources for lifelong wellness. The event also highlighted the library’s new Engagement Station—an interactive space promoting brain health, social connection, and lifelong learning—and included a demonstration of GetSetUp, an online learning platform designed for adults ages 55+.

Thank you to the fifth-grade students from Dryden Elementary School, Greenbrier Elementary School and Windsor Elementary School who stopped by the library throughout May to become library employees for a day! The students were able to get actual work experience in the library's Circulation department and Kids' World. They learned about checking in books and other items, assisted in the drive-up window, explored the bookmobile and more.

This experience was part of World of Work (WOW), a program that gives kids the opportunity to act as employees for a day for local businesses that interest them.

On Sunday, April 19, more than 1,000 people gathered at Arlington Heights Memorial Library to celebrate a major milestone: the library’s 100th birthday.

The Arlington Heights Memorial Library began as a volunteer-run women’s reading circle in the late 1800s. By 1926, the Village of Arlington Heights held an official election to establish the library, granting it formal recognition and allowing it to hire its first staff member. In 2026, the library marks 100 years as an officially recognized public library.
