About
The Western Branch Library is embarking on an exciting new chapter with a move to a new location at 323 S. Sheridan, just 0.5 miles from the current branch. This property, formerly the ZB Falcons building, is situated on Western Avenue—a main thoroughfare—offering increased visibility, accessibility, and room for growth.
As one of the busiest branches in our system, the current facility is no longer equipped to fully meet the needs of the community. The new branch will provide a modern, welcoming space designed to support learning & connection.
