It's every bit like you'd expect from an 'old prison'. It was built in the 1800's and, of course, when checking out the gate where Elwood picked up Jake in the movie Blues Brothers it looked exactly as expected. Even from the outside there's some good photo ops. Probably won't ever be in the area again, but am sure glad we had the opportunity to see it.

Parking was plentiful and the East Gate entrance (the ONLY entrance to the grounds) was fairly easy to find. The gift shop, on the other hand, is completely hidden and if not for a helpful staff member, I would have never seen it! Please, museum crew, improve the signage near the gift shop so you aren't losing money. This museum is a delight and I hope all Blues Brothers fans and others can enjoy it for years to come.

Leaving a one-star review because of the ridiculous "no sleeping" policy at White Oak Library. I…read morehad my head down while sitting upright at a table, listening to a lecture with headphones on, and was told I couldn't have my head down--even though I wasn't lying down or disturbing anyone. This rule is overly strict and targets students trying to study or concentrate. Librarians should focus on maintaining the facility and supporting patrons, not nitpicking harmless behavior. A library should be a welcoming space for learning, not a place where students are harassed for quietly minding their own business.

I went in to the Library to see if they had a shelf for Local Authors. They took my signed book…read moreand within two weeks it was on their shelf ready for all to borrow.

The P-ville Public Library is my favorite library (aside to the Naperville 75th Street Public…read moreLibrary!) Their computer monitors are very state-of-the-art; they have the ability to rotate almost completely sideways (watch sideways) & the height can also be lowered or raised -if You like to sit up high and keep the screen at eye-level! They move a couple more ways but, they do not tilt backwards -which would be necessary if You stood up and we're looking down at the monitor. Their media catalogue contains literally hundreds of great DVDs & a similar amount of Blu-rays! They offer a large selection of biographies/autobiographies; such as Erika Jayne's autobiography! Their second floor consists of 8 computers (4 on each side with) lots of desk surface for Your things! Drinks are okay if they have a lid/cap. Don't worry about space if You bring Your own device(s); they have about 8 personal tables for You & 2 friends (3 seats total!) Take note that not all tables have a charging outlet located on the floor. There is also a large area to the left (which is circular) for about 15 people to work privately! Not sure yet about the outlet situation over there. Bring large charging cables for Your devices in any situation. The computers have many charging outlets on the desk; charge 4-5 things if needed! It's probably best to bring a "multiple USB" usb adapter; there is only one usb port on the monitor with others possibly located elsewhere. The monitor has an SD card reader; buy an SD adapter to load files on Your TF/Micro SD card and place Your uploaded files on the micro so card into Your teléfono! It's a perfect library with even more perfect Librarians -my favorite aspect of anyplace that I visit! Shout out to Colette, Carmela, Andrea, Heather, Niel; my favorite Librarians!!! Neil says, "The language; it's unacceptable." I replied, "That movie is too fuc**ng funny!"

Free classes at the local library sounded great. We've attended the Baby & Me- walk in & offered Mon-Wed and Fun w/ Music- registration required. The staff is friendly and the resources are plenty. It's conveniently located in downtown Plainfield with plenty of parking- street & private lot.

At the risk of channeling Dorothy, I will have to insist that there is NO place like home!…read more For me, it is Frankfort, a great town southwest of the city of Chicago. It is close enough to the city that we can dine, play and even worship there but live in our burb. It is close to our favorite place for sports, the University of Illinois in Champaign. It might be far from where you live but hey, depending on who you are, this might be a plus! jk There is a great park district, tremendous schools and picturesque shopping. The property taxes are high because we have all these services and don't have a huge shopping center or industrial area. I am glad not to have those additions to a town which can lower taxes and I want the services so I am willing to pay the taxes. OK, I am done bragging about my town now, thanks for reading.
