CELEBRATE YOUR BABY'S BIRTH   stork.jpg        

The North Riverside Friends of the Library will celebrate the births of babies born to North Riverside Public Library patrons by donating a board book to the library's collection. Each book contains a book plate marking the special event. The baby's family also will receive a letter informing them of the donation.

Most recently, the board book "Hey, Diddle Diddle" was donated to celebrate the birth of Josiah Gabriel Navarro, son of Leilani and Francisco, and the board Book "Numbers" was donated to celebrate the birth of Edward Makovetskey, son of Pavel and Lyudmila.

Birth information should be directed to Library Director Robert J. Lifka.
