Cedar Lake Branch Library

Cedar Lake Branch Library
The Cedar Lake Branch of the Lake County Public Library is 52 years old, but the library itself has been in existence since 1939! We moved into our beautiful huge new building in May, 2006. We are the 2nd largest branch in the 3rd largest library system in the state! We boast a collection of over 50,000 items. We offer programs of interest to all ages--family, baby, toddler, preschool, and school age storytimes, along with many monthly teen & adult programs.
