    We love this library! Small cafe with treats and warm food. A clean children's section with toys and regularly updated book displays based on holidays and current topics. My family are frequent visitors and we will be back!

    Happy place!

    I love this library and the entire library system that GEPL sits in. I can put books on hold from my home, I can rent books on my Kindle from home, and I can even request books if the libraries don't carry them. The staff here is also always friendly, and their self checkout system works great.

    I have been a resident of Glen Ellyn and Wheaton for many years, and I've also lived in other states and used their libraries.

    This is a Christain college and I am Hindu…read more My husband and I love this library and campus. I had to pay to join the library, and it was worth every cent. The grounds are beautiful to run, and at no cost. Not one negative thing to say about Wheaton College.

    I attended Wheaton College as a student, but after graduating I still come here to study & check…read moreout books. The college library is open later than the public libraries so it's a good place if you're studying for a professional certification or have a work project. They are open until midnight week nights and have shortened hours on the weekends. My one complaint would be they are not open on Sundays due to the Sabbath. I understand school policy regarding these hours, but it leaves limited other public options for study spaces. Besides the hours, there are just enough study spaces for the amount of traffic that comes in and out of the library. During midterms and exam weeks I would not recommend trying to find a study spot, it will be too full. As a student or a paying community member, you will have access to the interlibrary loan system where you can check out books from any of the partner colleges in the IL area. It makes for cheap rental of books rather than buying a textbook online. I would definitely recommend paying to be a member if you need access to the library system for renting books or if you need resources on biblical topics. They have one of the most expensive collections of resources as far as reference material for biblical texts, archeological books or peer reviewed journals available online.
