14 Fascinating Library Programs to Benefit Literacy DuPage
Glen Ellyn, IL – Six public libraries in DuPage County – Addison, Indian Prairie, Itasca, Naperville, Westmont, and Wheaton – are collaborating on a one-community, two-book program series called "Neighbors Together" to promote Literacy DuPage's one-to-one English language tutoring program in attracting learners and tutors and to highlight the diversity of the county.
In February, each library will host a book discussion on the fiction title, The Book of Unknown Americans by Cristina Henriquez and/or the non-fiction title, Conditional Citizens by Laila Lalami.
Additional immigration-themed events are also being offered. Members of all libraries are welcome to participate in any of the programs or book discussions. Please note the libraries’ registration policies. Some events are held in person and some online.
