This woman had the nerve to approach my kids at the library and ask them if they were sitting in the back isle by the books because they're looking to get into mischief/trouble and don't want anyone to see what they were doing. Mind you, they were sitting quietly doing their homework on the floor. Why would she make such a remark? I'm sure if their skin color matched hers, her approach would have been different. My daughter called me because she felt uncomfortable. I drove down there to find out what was going on, she had left already. I left my number for her to call me, it's been 3 days and I'm yet to receive a call. I also understand that when I left the library, another white woman came over to them and was equally rude to them. These people need an attitude adjustment. Bottom line is my kids will NEVER go back there and at this point I don't even want to hear from you Ms Director.

I want to complain but don't know to who so I'll just yelp.

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.

She said, "Yes." 1 hour later she comes back into the room and says, "Please get out of the room. This is a history room not a study room." I said, "The librarian just said it was okay for me to study in here." She said, "I don't care, get out." The lady gave me attitude and was extremely rude to me for no reason. She should be fired. I asked, "Does anyone need the room?" She said. "No." So I do not understand the need to kick me out of the room if the room was fine the way it was. No one wanted the room. She claimed it to be a "history room." I was very focused studying for a class and I felt very disturbed for doing absolutely nothing wrong. I've NEVER been so humiliated at a library for legitimately doing nothing at all. This library has very rude librarians. Do not go there!
