📰 The Lead

Local families are logging final reading hours and exploring new digital resources as the East Moline Public Library rolls through the height of its summer programming slate. With specialized databases ranging from automotive repair to small business tools now accessible to cardholders, the library has seen a steady uptick in foot traffic this season. Library officials note that community engagement programs, including weekly youth craft sessions and adult interest clubs, continue to draw strong participation from residents of all ages. The resource expansion aligns with ongoing efforts to provide accessible, lifelong learning hubs right in the heart of the city. Cardholders can access the new digital tools online or stop by the main desk on 16th Avenue for assistance with accounts and program registration.
