The Northern Illinois Chapter of CGOA maintains a lending library of more than 270 crochet books and leaflets for our members. Karen Angel is our chapter librarian. Books may be checked out for 2 months at no charge. A late fee of $1.00 will be charged for each item for each month overdue.
Karen brings books to our meetings that are relevant to our monthly meeting education program. In addition, members may contact Karen and request specific books and leaflets from our collection.
