If you cannot locate what you are looking for you may place a hold on the item to have it sent from another library. If you do not find the item listed in our catalog, and are a Mokena Library card holder, we will try to locate it at a library from outside our system. Speak to staff for assistance in finding your item..

Individuals in Grade 9 and older should visit the Customer Service desk to request the use of a study room (or click here to reserve a room online). Study rooms are available for use during the Library’s open hours only. Rooms will be vacated 15 minutes prior to the library closing. Reservations will be taken Monday thru Saturday. Study rooms are available in two hour intervals per day at no charge for Mokena Community Public Library District cardholders in good standing (fines must be under $5.00 and there cannot be any long overdues). Each study room can accommodate four individuals. Study rooms may be reserved up to one week in advance by phone, online, or in person. An individual or group may have no more than one advance reservation per week. Groups may not obtain additional sessions by having different members of the group make a reservation for the same, substantially the same or similar groups.

Materials must be checked out at the Circulation desk or our self-check station. Most items have a three-week check out period and may be renewed three times unless there is a hold on the item or your account is not in good standing. DVDs are checked out for 21 days and cannot be renewed.
