Event Details

Today is National Voter Registration Day, so come register to vote at the Watts-Midtown Branch!

Election Day will be here before you know it, so make sure you're ready. If you've recently moved, changed your name, turned 18, or gotten out of prison, it's especially important to register.

Illinois law requires two forms of ID to register - and your library card counts as one! If you have any questions about what you need to register to vote, you can contact a reference librarian by calling 309-732-7341 or emailing us at rililibref@rigov.org, or visit the County Clerk's website.

You can also register online at ova.elections.il.gov any time between now and October 20th, or in person at the Rock Island County Courthouse.
