Carol Stream Public Library We are the public library of Carol Stream, IL. This is where Carol Stream comes to create, search, play and learn. The whole family is welcome at the Library.

The Carol Stream Public Library has been helping residents create, search, play and learn for over 50 years. Preschoolers enjoy our story times, play area filled with toys, and digital storybooks. School-aged kids love our science experiments, library games, and visiting performers. Teens have a place to study, share their interests, and volunteer. We can help adults learn English as a second language, gain computer skills, take an exercise class, or discover their family history. Do you want quality entertainment without spending a fortune? We have new and popular DVDs, video games, magazines, books, and music. Prefer a tablet or e-reader? Take advantage of our e-books, e-magazines, audiobooks, and streaming music. Visitors can use our free WiFi and adult and kid-friendly computer labs. Keep an eye out for our newsletter in your mailbox to see all our upcoming events. All this and more is waiting for you when you use your library card, so drop by today to sign up. Follow us on Facebook, Pinterest, Twitter, and Instagram.

🦖💚 When you love dinosaurs, you make dinos!🦕✨

These two young dino lovers stopped by the library and decided our Everbrite needed a little prehistoric creativity! With a little imagination and a LOT of dinosaur love, they created their very own dino masterpiece and we think it deserves a roar of approval! 👏🏽

We love seeing young patrons make the library their space: 💚📚
