Children visiting the Oak Park River Forest Infant Welfare Society’s Children’s Clinic leave with gifts more valuable and long-lasting than the typical stickers or suckers. Each child has the opportunity to take home and keep one to two new or gently used books from the society’s warm and cheery library. And with a recent donation of 500 books from Dominican University’s Rebecca Crown Library, they will have a lot more books to choose from. “One of the things that those of us who are not trained in any of the medical fields can do to help promote IWS’s mission is to focus on this library,” said Nancy Van Der Griend, chair of IWS’s volunteer-led Giving Library Committee. “Connecting children with books and developing a love of reading is one of the ways we can help kids thrive, complete school and have the kinds of life we hope they will have.” “It’s not often that children look forward to going to the doctor or dentist but our library, which is bright and colorful and doesn’t feel clinical, adds value and helps create a positive experience for kids,” said Rowena Abrahams, IWS director of marketing.
