The Annual Report highlights the library's accomplishments over the past year, such as offering new and innovative programs, extending outreach services for youth, adding new adaptive resources, and improving access to passport services. The report also focuses on our plans for 2018, including growing our catalog through the SWAN Migration in May and renovating the library's entrance to create a welcoming lobby area and add a drive-up window and café. We listen to the community and work hard to continue our track record of providing exceptional service and materials, as well as exciting programs, to all members - of every age, background, and ability - of the Glen Ellyn community.
