Supporting Our Library in 2025

The Glenview Public Library Foundation is thrilled to continue fostering a love of reading in our community by supporting vital library programs. Thanks to the incredible generosity of our donors, we have proudly approved funding for two key initiatives in 2025: Glenview Reads Together ($9,000) and the Summer Reading Program ($3,000).

In addition, we're launching a capital campaign to create a new, interactive play space in the Youth Services department! This dynamic learning area is designed to spark curiosity, inspire creativity, and promote cognitive growth for our community's youngest learners. Learn more about this transformative project here.
