Yorkville Public Library proudly presents: THE HUB - A Magazine about the People in Your Neighborhood

The Hub, Issue 1: Summer 2025 - https://tinyurl.com/ewsehzpa  

Last year we did some soul searching (with the help of a strategic planner and community survey), the people spoke, and they wanted us to be "a hub" for the community - a place where anyone in the community can come for information, entertainment, social gatherings, to share ideas, make friends...That's why we are calling our new digital magazine The Hub! It's about more than just the library, it features cool local happenings, highlight people with interesting hobbies, talents, and stories and essentially, introduce you to some of the incredible people in our community. If you have any ideas for future issues of The Hub or know anyone who we should feature (local authors, poets, artists, musicians, small business owners, photographers, etc.), contact Mike Curtis, the Director of Adult Services at mcurtis@yorkville.lib.il.us. To subscribe to The Hub and receive each issue in your email quarterly, sign up here: https://tinyurl.com/4ernttfj
