If you do not have a Skokie Public Library card or another card with current borrowing privileges, please call the Contact Number listed below and a member of our staff will be happy to sign you up.

Registration for Library programs requires a current library card from Skokie Public Library or a registered card from your "home" library. After you enter your card number and your last name to "log in" to the online calendar, your full name, phone number, and email address will automatically appear in the sign-up form as it currently appears in your Library account. You will be able to verify the information without having to type it every time you sign up for a program. This will improve accuracy and speed the registration process. If you call to register for a program, please have your Library card number ready for a staff member to enter for you.

For all programs that require registration...
  • Where noted, public registration ends 2 days before the program date.

  • After the registration deadline, available spaces will be filled on a first come, first served basis.
    Please call the "Contact Number" listed below for space availability and registration.
