Get Fine Forgiveness!
To celebrate Valentine's Day, from February 1-14 we will waive $1 of overdue fines on your NOPL card (up to $10 per card) for each non-perishable item brought to the library.  Donations may include pet food, baby food and diapers, but please do not bring anything homemade, expired or dented.  Visit our website for examples of what you can donate and details about who will benefit from your donations.
How Can You Help?
The LibraryFarm is raising funds to upgrade and improve its grounds and communication system in 2015.  We have raised over $5,000 so far, but we need your help to reach our goal of $11,000!  Click here to donate now on a secure site and help us get the word out by sharing this fundraiser on your Facebook page!
Brought to you by The Friends of NOPL at Cicero:

Join us at NOPL at Cicero on Saturday, February 7th for a pre-Valentines Day book and bake sale!  The sale will run from 9:30 am-3pm, with a $2 bag sale starting at 1:30pm. There will be a large variety of books, audiobooks, DVDs, CDs, puzzles and baked goods to choose from - get there early for the best selection!
