IPDPL – Washburn Welcomes New Patrons

Illinois Prairie celebrates their expanded service area with an Open House

A referendum expanding the service area for Illinois Prairie District Public Library passed in November 2022, granting library access to residents in a portion of Marshall County previously unserved by any library system.  Any Marshall County resident living in Lowpoint-Washburn CUSD #21 and not served by another library system is now eligible to get a library card from Woodford County’s largest library system.  

The public is invited to an Open House at IPDPL – Washburn, 104 W Magnolia St, Washburn, on Thursday, February 23rd, 2023, from 3:00 pm – 7:00 pm. 

  • Explore the library and the Dr. Stephen M. Burdon Museum adjacent to the library.  
  • Door Prizes
  • Shredded Book Contest
  • Face Painting
  • Balloons from The Unique Twist
  • Light Refreshments
  • Two $100 gift cards will be given away
