Battle of the Library Cards

The Annual Battle of the Library Cards for elementary schools runs during September each year.  Students from the Bolingbrook elementary schools receive their battle forms from their teachers.  Students return the completed forms to their classroom teacher or school librarian.  If you lose your form, you can download the English form here, or the Spanish form here.

"Battle" prizes are sponsored by the Friends of the Fountaindale Public Library.  Winning schools will receive a paperback collection of books for their library media center.  For any questions, please contact the Outreach Services Manager at 630-685-4231.

If you have a special class project and need library materials, please contact Outreach Services Manager at 630-685-4231.  One week advanced notice is requested for this service. 

The Fountaindale Public Library provides access to the library collection to teachers and school staff working in Bolingbrook.  Each perosn can receive a Fountaindale card for checking out library materials to be used in the classroom.  Library materials for personal use should be checked out through the person's personal library card.  You can register for the teacher card at the library or at a Bookmobile stop.  Please bring a photo ID and something to show you work at the school, and the staff will be happy to assist you.

For any questions about our services, please contact Marianne Thompson, Outreach Services Manager, at 630-685-4231.
