7th Annual Library Crawl
2025-10-01 - 2025-10-31
This October, take some time to appreciate some of our incredible libraries throughout the State of Illinois!
The Annual Library Crawl is a unique event organized by the public libraries of Illinois Heartland Library System as a fun way to introduce our public library’s patrons to the other libraries of the IHLS service area. Patrons can visit area libraries throughout the month of the crawl and get a passport stamp at each library they visit. Some patrons have tried to visit every library in the crawl! The main purpose, though, is to help participants discover the many, many great resources available to them with their library cards.
Pick up a Library Crawl Passport from MCL’s Main Desk, and get a stamp from each participating library you visit.
Share your posts with the hashtag #IHLSLibraryCrawl2025 to let everyone follow your adventure! The first three Marion Carnegie Library patrons who return a passport with at least five stamps will receive a small gift bag of Marion Carnegie Library branded items!
ALL MONTH LONG!
