Evergreen Park Public Library received a “Bridging the Digital Divide” grant through the Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity. Twelve public computers in the Adult Services department have been replaced with new models. New equipment was installed so that the library now provides fast broadband Internet access (50 mbps download and 5 mbps upload speeds) throughout the building. Twelve notebook computers were purchased to provide hands-on instruction in Basic Computers (in English and Spanish) and Microsoft Office.

Have you ever wondered how Evergreen Park got its name? Or who first settled the area? Discover these answers and more in our local history collection.
EP Library received a grant from the Illinois State Historical Records Board to organize, preserve, and digitize the local history collection. The grant will pay for archival supplies and digitization software to provide online access to our historical documents.
Items in the physical collection are available upon request. Digitized records will soon appear under the Local History link on www.evergreenparklibrary.org. You can follow our progress on EP Library’s Facebook and Twitter accounts, too!
Grant activities are supported in part by an award from the Illinois State Historical Records Advisory Board, through funding from the National Historical Publications and Records Commission (NHPRC), National Archives and Records Administration.
