It's time to participate in the 7th Annual IHLS (Illinois Heartland Library System) Library Crawl!  From October 1 - 31, stop and pick up your Official Passport.  Then visit at least 5 more participating libraries of which there are close to 200 locations taking part this year.  When you've visited as many other libraries as you can, turn in the last page in your passport with your name, contact info, and home library. 

Each library has a page in the online 2025 Library Crawl Guidebook;  you will find a QR code for this on the back page of your passport.  Be sure to check it out for a list of local eateries and places of interest recommended by Library staff.

Don't forget: your library card is good at all of the public libraries that are taking part so you are welcome to browse their stacks and check out items when you visit.  Just return them to your home library when you're finished and we'll send them back to the owning libraries for you.

If you choose, take photos along the way and post them on social media with the #IHLSLibraryCrawl2025.
