Patron Spotlight: Ethan Armitage
From November 2015 until May of this
year, Ethan Armitage, 17, a Lisle resident,
worked hard to publish his own book.
Olivia2 catalogs the life and habits of his
hamster and shows the responsibilities
he took on to care for his adorable, little
pet. To compile the data needed for the
book, Ethan, with the help of his father
and his tutor Joan Spindler, who have
been working together in the Library’s
Literacy/ELD Room for several years,
went online for information and checked
out many books from the Lisle Library on hamsters. Unfortunately, Olivia2 passed
away this past June, but Ethan is looking on the bright side, saying that, “It’s nice
to have the book I wrote to look back on and remember her.”

Celebrate International Literacy Day!
In 1965, UNESCO declared September 8th annually to be International Literacy Day. Since this
proclamation, libraries, schools, communities and organizations have united around the world
on this day to raise awareness about problems associated with not knowing how to read,
write and communicate and to increase access to education. The approach today is to blend
traditional learning methods with digital tools as a valuable solution to increasing literacy skills.
On Thursday, September 8th, check out the Library’s display in the entrance lobby or stop by
the Literacy/English Language Development area to view our resources and find out how to
volunteer to become a literacy tutor to help adults improve their English as a second language
or basic skills.
For more information about the LLD Literacy Programs: Contact Jean Demas, Literacy
Outreach Librarian, at [email protected] or 630-971-1675, ext. 1002.
