I love coming here and picking up a book to read for hours, getting lost in the quiet comfort of the space. Reading is one of my favorite things to do, and I hope to have a library of my own one day--not as large, but inspired by experiences like attending a Chris Collins Top Dawg event in LA, where he, a dealer consultant, has his own incredible library. I truly admire that. Education is one of the most important things I value in this world, and this is a wonderful place to start. read more

Last Fri, my 6 year old son and I went to the children's desk looking for new spooky book series' ideas. They were so helpful and we checked out some great books. But an hour later, I got a call and the librarian remembered a book that she thought my son would love. But I never told her who I was. She had to have gone out of the way to look up my profile based on what I checked out and then found my number and called. Talk about an amazing person. Love HG Library!! read more

Although I love this library, its weekend hours are VERY minimal. There have been many times I wanted to take my kids there or stop and pick up a book only to find it was closed. Currently, it's closed on Sundays. Friday it closes at 4 and 3:00 on Saturday. Everyone who works there is wonderful and it's very clean, but I wish that it had more flexible hours for the community. read more

Beautiful library with the most pleasant and helpful staff. Tons of activities and play areas for kids of all ages including a really cool area for tweens in a private room full of manga and young adult books. They hatch baby chicks every year at spring time and live stream the eggs process on their website. Parking lot is massive and even when there are a lot of people in the library it never feels crowded or less personal. Books, magazines, DVD, CDs - you name it, they carry it. The whole family loves this place read more

I haven't been there in years but I had to visit for research twice in the last 3 :months and each time the staff was awesome. They are totally helpful and willing to assist you step by step. Yesterday I went there late to get some tickets printed and had no clue on how to do it. The youthful clerk was as adorable and kind as she was helpful and knowledgeable. Thank you so much. I love living in this town because of people like her. Wish I had gotten her name but her only interest was to help me obtain the info I needed. I don't go there much but look forward to the next time . read more

Visited the Homer Township Library for the first time today with my two year old. I was thoroughly impressed with the children's section. The area is very comfortable for parents to sit off on the side and work or study while the little one is exploring books, puzzles, coloring, and the play house. The only reason I am not giving five stars is because the children's programming is geared toward older children. There does not seem to be enough planned activities for children under five. read more

This technically is my neighborhood library and from a strictly aesthetic point of view this review should be 5 stars. But I only have a library card from here because that card lets me use the Fountaindale Library in Bolingbrook. This library sits just outside Lockport and is pretty new but I can never find anything there I am looking for. Their new book section is small which is crazy since the taxes to support this library are crazy high. The staff are very nice and helpful. read more

This review is from a student's point of view in regards to studying. Small library with limited seating and only two tables in the quiet study area. Not too good of a place to study because kids can be loud, and the staff kicks you out of the study room when someone else wants to use it. Go to Orland Park Public library instead. read more

Best library ever. They also let you checkout movies for a week for free. Great selections. Love to hangout there on rainy days, the fireplace makes the experience even more cozy. read more

This place is ridiculous, they are literally giving away books!!! I don't know who is running the show here, but get it while the getting is good. You just have to go in and get a card and then they let you take the books away, FREE!!! They have shelves and shelves of books and THEY ARE JUST GIVING THEM AWAY. I hope that no one that works here wises up and realizes how much books are actually worth. You could get an entire education from the books in this place and they let you walk out the door with the material no questions asked. Insane. If you wanted to learn how airplanes fly or why astronauts have to wear those big bulky suits they have a book with that information in it. they even have books that will just make your day better by giving you a good story that someone made up, they are hidden in the fiction section. That's the other thing, these fools grouped the books together to make it even easier to find one that you want. All they want is that you flash some fancy card that they give you(for free) and then bring the book back when you are done with it. All I am saying is that you better get in here before the guy in charge figures out what is going on. read more

Love this library. Great place for both young children and adults. The atmosphere is warm and inviting as well as conducive to working in.

They have recently remodeled and it's very impressive! It's one level, larger than before but not huge and looks wonderful! Very modern and up-to-date. Really made it a place for all to enjoy. Besides what you would commonly expect to find at a library they also have great study rooms and computer section. I believe they also have a teen and/or little lounge area which is beat. But the area I am well versed in & main reason I go is for their children's section. Wow! It's just the best. They have have tables of toy trains, Legos, a play kitchen with lots of play food and accessories, a play house, puzzles, puppets, blocks, you name it.... And of course books, tons and tons of books. They also have designated computers for the kids and booths along side the room where I've seen kids doing homework. The whole children's section is it own wing. I take my 1 year old here and he just LOVES it. We could play here all day. They have numerous programs as well for everyone, from birth onward. For instances, for kids, they offer drop in story times, programs you need to register, yet are free and programs with a fee. We just signed up for two programs and are super excited! Unlike Orland Park library, you don't need a library card to be allowed to sneeze in this library (ok, maybe a slight exaggeration), which I appreciate. At certain times of the day this place is bumpin'. Other times its empty, which can be nice too. I'm just totally excited and impressed by the newly improved library. Bravo Homer Glen, Bravo! read more
