Teacher Book Request

New Lenox Public Library loves supporting our local schools! Our Youth Services Department can help curate a list of book recommendations for your classroom or pull books for your students to browse and check out while visiting the public library. Let us know how we can help you below.

This form is also available at the Youth Services Desk at the Library, and for download at New Lenox Library Book Request for Teachers (PDF, 189 KB).

For questions regarding book or other specialty requests, please contact Youth Services Outreach Coordinator Elizabeth Yolich-LaMore at eyolich@newlenoxlibrary.org.

Please note: the Youth Services Department serves patrons up to and including 8th Grade. High school teachers should contact Adult & Teen Services Outreach Coordinator Dominic Ricobene at dricobene@newlenoxlibrary.org.

Students may come in to browse the books, but will need an active library card to check out materials.
