Does your library have an interesting story no one knows about or is there a fun fact about your library that only your patrons and staff and know about? If so, share it with the Illinois library community! We are launching an Illinois library #MondayFunday fact or story that we will post on our Facebook page every Monday to start the week. Members will get a chance to share an interesting story or historical tidbit about their library.
Share an experience of a celebrity visiting your library or who was an employee, a unique award your library has received (locally or nationally), or anything interesting (or fun) that has happened at your library. Personal members are encouraged to share an interesting experience they’ve had meeting their favorite author, an actor who portrayed their favorite character from a book, a experience at a library outside of the U.S., or any other personal, fun library-related experience. Photos are encouraged.
You must be an Institutional or Personal Member to submit a #MondayFunday fact or story. Submissions will be edited for space and ILA reserves the right to select from among them. Send your fact or story and photo (if feasible) to Tamara Jenkins, at tjenkins@ila.org, with the subject line “Fun Fact”.
