Welcome to the Teen Zone! Teens are invited to hang out at the Library after school for a variety of activities including coloring, arts and crafts, games, study sessions, and more! The Library will provide the space and supplies for teens to engage with each other and Library resources.
What was known as the Shelby Branch began in 1918 when the library was housed in old School No. 34. A new branch was constructed in 1965 at the current Shelby Street location. Following a major renovation, the branch reopened in 2011 as the Garfield Park Branch, reflecting the desire of residents to refer to the branch by their beloved and adjacent Garfield Park.
