Exciting news at BPL - your library card now allows you to check out a Hotspot! Once you check out the hotspot and get logged in (information comes with the unit), you'll be able to connect up to 8 devices at once to have the internet wherever you are. These come with a 2-week checkout period and a few different rules than our other materials, which you can find at https://mybpl.org/equipment.

Join us as we welcome our September Artist of the Month, the Bloomingdale Artists Association!

The Bloomingdale Park District has long been a driving force in fostering community engagement through the arts. For more than 30 years, its partnership with the Bloomingdale Artists Association (BAA) has provided meaningful opportunities for artistic expression, cultural enrichment, and community connection. From annual exhibits at the Bloomingdale Park District Museum to bi-monthly workshops and demonstrations - such as Neurographic Art, Clay Pot Painting, and Needle Felting - residents engage in diverse art forms that inspire creativity and learning. Initiatives such as the annual silent auction of BAA members’ artwork directly support scholarships for students pursuing art education, demonstrating the District’s comment to fostering future generations of artists. This culture of giving strengthens community ties and ensures sustainability of the arts.

Some items are for sale; please visit the Business Office at the Library for more information.
