Oak Brook Library - Very organized and this area pretty much sums up the entire kids play area. Plenty of seating available

Definitely an older library but it's clean and neat. Mainly visited the kids section, closer…read moresuburbs have larger kids section and lots more to do but I give them props for cleanliness and tidiness

Worst Library I have ever been to in my life. Not a place of learning and study…read more I was using one of the library's computer monitor to use a a second monitor to study. A Mr. Ejez Khan walked up to me shaking his head like a disapproving father stated You cant do that! I ask him Excuse me sir but who are you? He said i am part of the library staff and I then informed him that i was given permission by library staff that I could use the monitor. He asked me who gave me permission and I said I dont need to give you that information. He then brings the library director Sue Madorin who asked me the same question and I pointed to the gentlemen sitting behind the desk near the computer lab. She then pushed me back off to Mr. Khan who was then introduced as the IT supervisor. He said I couldn't use the monitor for that purpose so I got up and left. The director approached me again and says I dont want you to feel uncomfortable I explained to her that Mr. Khans approach was unprofessional and uncalled for and proceeded out of the library. The head of the oak brook village calls me and basically stated that no one gave me permission to use the monitor. I asked him about the way that Mr. Khan approached me and he stated that thats not what his staff told him. Its funny that he would say this because to my knowledge the only person that could hear the initial exchange between Mr. Khan and I was the gentleman who gave me permission in the first place. May I add that in the library is a cell phone free zone Mr. Khan was on his cell phone talking while in the library How did I know because he was 10 feet from me. Its good to see "staff" of the library not following rules that are posted everywhere in the library.

What a wonderful, clean, friendly library! Came in to get a library card and the staff was…read moreextremely helpful and friendly. With a wide variety of book, ample study rooms, a cafe, and even a flight simulator, it's the perfect place to come and relax and find a good book to read.

My daughter and her tutor used the Hemingway study room on 5/20 at approximately 5:45 p.m…read more Unfortunately, the experience was extremely unpleasant and concerning. The group using the room prior to them left half-eaten sushi in the trash can, causing the room to smell strongly of fish. To help with the odor, my daughter's tutor, who is also a Glen Ellyn resident, placed the trash can partially in the doorway to keep the door slightly open for ventilation. An employee described as taller with dark hair approached them and stated that it was "policy" that the trash cans had to remain inside the room with the door closed. When the tutor explained the odor issue, the employee returned with a bottle of Febreze and sprayed it directly in their direction inside the enclosed study room, then placed the sushi-filled trash can back inside the room and shut the door again while reiterating that the door had to remain closed. My daughter became physically ill after the session and vomited when she got home. Regardless of intent, spraying a scented chemical irritant into a small enclosed space without asking the occupants was inappropriate and unprofessional. More concerning is that the obvious solution -- simply removing or emptying the trash containing rotting food -- was ignored in favor of masking the smell with spray fragrance. This situation demonstrated poor judgment, lack of customer care, and an unnecessary escalation of a simple sanitation issue.
