Welcome, Barrington area non-profits! Here you will find events, workshops, and links to library services that will help you grow your non-profit organization.


 


Community Calendar
- Local non-profit organizations may submit events for listing on our online community calendar.

Community Information Screen - The library dedicates one of its large, in-house video display screens to promoting community events. Local non-profit organizations may submit Powerpoint slides, or submit flyers/posters via email in PDF or other formats, for the library to create slides. We regret that we are not able to take posters, brochures or other printed materials for display in the library. Librarians are available to assist you in scanning posters for our community information screen. Complete details.

Community Pages - Local clubs and organizations may add their information to the library catalog. When library customers search for books and movies on related subjects, information about your nonprofit will also appear in the search results. For details, please contact the Community Engagement Librarian at 847-382-1300 X 3140 or email sadams@balibrary.org.

Group Visits - Prearranged group visits are available for schools, preschools, governmental units, non-profit organizations, and businesses in the Barrington Public Library District. Library staff can provide library tours, technology workshops, research tips, book talks and story time presentations. E-mail Youth Services or Adult Services to arrange a tour.

Librarian Roadshow - Librarians can visit your community group or meeting to present on a wide variety of interesting and useful topics. Complete details.

Services to businesses - In addition to non-profit organizations, the library offers many services to local businesses. See our business page and contact Business Liaison Librarian Annette Bochenek at abochenek@balibrary.org or by phone at 847-382-1300 X 3050.
