Resources for Teachers and Community Partners

A trip to the library or a visit from a librarian can be customized to meet the needs of your elementary and middle school, preschool, scout group, youth club, or community organization. Whether you are looking for a storytime,  booktalk, library tour, or something else, let’s connect about the best ways to partner.


Outreach and Materials request for Teachers

Request Materials
Let us bring the library to you! Plan a visit with a librarian during class time or break periods to share book recommendations, program samplings, library card sign-up information and more. Field trips to the Library are available, too!  Fill out the Outreach Request Form to get in contact with a librarian.

We can assist with selecting and reserving materials for your classroom that will be checked out to your teacher account, thanks to an agreement between the libraries and local school districts. A Teacher Card will allow you to access materials using a library card for your classroom, including multiple copies for a single title for in-class use. In addition to our print and physical collections, you'll have access to digital collections including eBooks, audiobooks, magazines and databases, as well as our Library of Things/Circulating Equipment!  Fill out the Teacher Card Request form to get started.

We are also happy to provide support for your students for class research projects, reading assignments and other homework assignments. Materials can be pulled for use at the La Grange Public Library or for check-out.

Look for us out in the Community, Too!

From the La Grange Farmers Market to Mobile Book Bins across our community, we are always looking for ways to bring the library closer to you. Let us know how we can partner with you!
