NEW: Online Library Cards
Stuck at home? Sign-up for an Arlington Heights Memorial Library card online to access thousands of eBooks, digital magazines, movies and more. If you live in the library's service area and do not have an AHML library card, you can now register online for a digital card. You can use your card right away to check out eBooks, access library databases and online learning resources, as well as reserve books, DVDs and more. You can pick up your physical card after we reopen. Please be sure to bring ID with proof of your name and current address to the Checkout Desk after the library reopens. For children and teens, a signature and current ID from a parent or guardian is required when you pick up your new card. Children must be present with a parent or guardian to pick up their card. Request your card today and start reading, watching, listening and learning online. |

Immigration Stories from Windsor Family and Friends
We learned about immigration to the United States since 1820.
Students were invited to interview someone that has immigrated to the US and share their story with the class.
The stories are so heartwarming, that we wanted to share them with you. Enjoy!
