The Heart of the Community
Since 1941, our library has stood as a source of community pride, a place where children read and play, neighbors gather, and people find connection and solace. But a building designed for another era can no longer keep pace with how we live and learn today.
The proposed master plan, designed by lifelong Glencoe resident and Skidmore, Owings & Merrill Managing Partner Adam Semel, preserves the library’s historic charm while transforming it into a vibrant space that serves the community today and inspires the next generation.
Through these Next Chapter Updates, we will share the vision for the library’s future, keep you connected with updates, and invite you to participate in the library’s journey!
