Byron Public Library offers creative studio

Stack of books

Byron Public Library’s creative studio is open on Sunday afternoons and two evenings a week, so stop by for monthly crafts and to use maker space equipment.

Crafts out on the tables are free of charge, while some other projects will incur a cost depending on materials. Middle school and high school youths can use some of the materials while with an adult, or during Teen Time.

Creative studio hours are Sunday from 1-4:45 p.m.; Mondays and Tuesdays from 9 a.m. to 12:45 p.m. and 5-7:45 p.m.; Wednesdays and Thursdays from 9 a.m. to 12:45 p.m.; and Friday and Saturday closed.

Curbside delivery

The library is open for browsing, but patrons can still use curbside service. Place your holds online at byronlibrary.org or call 815-234-5107. Not sure what you want? Call for help. Staff will call or email you with a confirmation when your holds are ready to be picked up. Call when you arrive at the library, and staff will bring your items out to you, already checked out. A receipt with your due dates will be included with your items.

Visit the Byron Library Facebook page, or subscribe to its newsletters at byronlibrary.org, to keep up to date on library news and programs. Be sure to also check out the Byron Library and Byron Library Teen Instagram pages.
