I eventually received tutoring and help from a high school guidance counselor and mentors at the library. In my early twenties I couldn't put books down. I love the feel of a book in my hands and I enjoy turning the pages. Moving along with evolving technology; I also enjoy online books as well as recorded books that I can listen to during my commutes. I appreciate that the libraries offer so many opportunities for one to be creative with books. So many ways to stimulate and cultivate creative imagination. The library also has a lot of different events and activities for families and the communities. I appreciate so much how Chicago Public Libraries have helped me to blossom, my children to thrive and now my g-baby loves the experiences as well.

This library is on the south side of Archer Avenue between Karlov and Kedvale Avenues…read more Parking This library parking lot has two entrances : one immediately east of the building on Archer Avenue and the other from 51st Street in the rear of the building. You can usually find street parking around /near the library--but be aware of certain parking restrictions. Please note: there is a parking lot adjacent to the library parking lot. The lot that is on Karlov is for Supermercado La Gloria, a grocery store across the street--so please don't park there! The Building This is a very pleasant library. The only public entrance is from Archer Ave. You will enter into the lobby and to your left is the Community Room. At the end of the lobby, again to your left, you will find the restrooms (if you are looking for them :) . To the right is where the books, etc can be found. After passing the front desk, you will find Adult Computers and tables/chairs in the middle of the library. The Children's Library is to the right. It looked like a very nice area for the children. Adult book sections are to the left. Toward the back of the library is the section that I have always liked best about this library - - four cozy chairs for sitting and enjoying a book or the newspaper. Unfortunately, these chairs have long seen there better days. I know that Elizabeth, the Branch Librarian, would like to improve this area, but due to funding, she has not been able to do this. It would be really thoughtful and generous if a local (or even not so local but very generous :) business would be a sponsor and provide the funds for some new comfortable chairs for this area. People really enjoy this area of this library and I have no doubt would appreciate such generosity. Service I used to shop regularly in the Archer Heights area about ten years ago and would stop at this library to use the computer. I have always liked this library and found the service to be very good. I stopped in on 12/27/2018 and was glad to see Elizabeth, the Branch Manager and Lisa, the head clerk again. I needed some help with the computer and the Children,'s Librarian, Mary, was really great and helped me to figure out a way to get the work I needed to do get done. She was very patient and kind. There were two other clerks at the desk when I came in and they were very nice alao. Even the security guard looked like he was doing a fine job. I always enjoy stopping by this library when I am in the Archer Heights area.

I stopped at the Pullman branch in order to drop off ballots for the city elections. It's a small…read morebranch but it was hopping today with people there to vote, and election workers trying to talk up their candidates. Voting and ballot drop-off took place in the community room just inside the entrance to the building. This branch has a small parking lot in the back with about twenty spaces, as well as street parking because Green Street is a cul-de-sac here. It's a small branch and a single story, but it's also a newer one having been built in 2005. It's in really good condition I was surprised to find it's been around that long. The architecture is in the prairie style that they've been employing in the newer branches, or at least the ones built around that time. Like many of the newer branches it's LEED certified as well. There's a children's section, and the main room of the library has a large number of computers for the neighborhood's use. When I was there, only one was in use but the dude seemed to be winning his game! They don't seem to have a huge collection of books, actually, though libraries are so much more than that these days; luckily the CPL system is huge and you can get pretty much anything transferred between branches if the local one doesn't have it. Given the location of the branch it's not a surprise that they feature information related to the Pullman company. Specifically, they highlight A. Philip Randolph, an important figure in labor, Pullman company, railroad, and Civil Rights history. He spearheaded the movement to unionize the Pullman Porters, and for his efforts the Pullman Porter museum is named in his honor. They also have some nice artwork; in the main room there are some panels depicting various scenes. In the entrance hall, there are portrayals of both A Philip Randolph and Barack Obama. Almost forgot to mention what I saw I was leaving. There was a little box just inside the door with two boxes of naloxone, aka Narcan, to use in suspected cases of opioid overdose. Since Illinois is a state where anyone is allowed to carry this to provide aid if necessary I've been wanting to pick some up for myself to carry, but I haven't seen it in public spaces to prove assistance. I was pretty glad to see it.
