The Schaumburg Library will always have a special place in my heart. I grew up coming here, both…read morethe old location and the current "new" one, and it has always been a safe, welcoming space for me. It's where I learned to get lost in the wonder of books and the joy of learning. The current library is beautifully designed and thoughtfully organized, with what feels like every book imaginable at your fingertips. Beyond the space itself, the people who work here are truly exceptional - some of the kindest, most caring individuals you could hope to meet. Now that I live in NYC, I love bringing my kids here whenever we visit. It's always my very first stop after landing at the airport. This library isn't just a building--it's a community treasure.

They have a large public computer room that's always clean and printers and copier machines! Only thing I can say is that I wish they had a better African American selection and not just for black history month but all months! But whenever I did look for an African American author that i couldn't find they did get it for me.

If I lived in the area, I would definitely be a regular here / rent out books, video games, and movies often. The place looked clean & well maintained as well. This library made me miss living in the suburbs. If you've never been here and are thinking about it, I recommend. Thank you Elk Grove Library, wishing the best!

(so while i was totally awe-inspired and impressed overall, of course i have to nitpick. that's what happens when you're "in the industry." meet me in the next paragraph if you're not interested in this little rant.) i did not like the youth desk; i felt like the staff were hiding behind this weird green panel. kids would have to go to either side to see them. and when standing in front of the desk, all you see is the green panel, oddly positioned, and noticeably NOT covering the many, many wires protruding under the desk from the computers. i really do not understand this design. some things i loved about this library: --the storytime room looks like the bottom of a rocket from the outside. totally cute. (nitpick: is there a way to get in without taking the stairs?) --they have a sort of enclosed outdoor space right near the storytime room. jealous! --wide, open spaces, likely with lots of little nooks and crannies to get yourself cozy in. --wonderful, helpful, knowledgeable, talented staff.

I recently visited and volunteered for their "May the 4th Be With You" event. This event was so well branded and organized, I wished more families attended. It was a light library day, but the staff and volunteers went above and beyond to deliver a fun Star Wars themed experience for children and adults alike. The services offered by this library today are vast and I even got a nice look at their Mobile library unit outside. The free computer use area seemed very busy and they also have rooms you can use for study groups and meetings.

You can tell it was designed with families in mind. They have a great selection of books for all ages, so it's easy to find something kids will actually get excited about.

The decoration really stands out too. It's cheerful and welcoming without feeling overwhelming, which makes the whole space feel comfortable and inviting. We'll be coming back!
