Event Details

You're Invited For Our 50th Anniversary Celebration!
Join us in celebrating the rich history and bright future of our library district. Enjoy a reception and explore an exhibit showcasing our district’s journey.

Since opening its doors in 1884, the Winnetka Public Library has been a cornerstone for community knowledge and enjoyment. In 1974 we took a bold step forward by becoming a standalone library district, uniting with Northfield to create a stronger, more vibrant library community. This crucial move allowed us to expand our services and resources, bringing our two communities together under one shared mission of lifelong learning and discovery.

We’re excited to announce a special exhibit at our libraries that takes you on a journey through our history. Explore how we’ve grown, adapted, and inspired generations. Join us in celebrating the rich history and bright future of our library district.
