Leisure Reading at your library

•Time
•Vibe

Stop by to see all of the magazines that are available. We also have leisure reading magazines at the Sugar Grove campus, included in our current periodicals section, and a collection of paperback books. The paperback books are updated with popular new titles periodically.

The Aurora campus has a new reading area with comfortable chairs and benches. It is located around the corner from the computer lab right by the magazine rack.
