A plaque on the library reads:
"JOLIET PUBLIC LIBRARY
Built in 1903, the building was
designed in the French Beaux Arts
style by Daniel H. Burnham Co., the
famous Chicago architect. For many
years, Joliet City offices were located
in this structure. The 1991 library
addition tripled the size of the existing
structure. At a cost of 6.1 million, the
addition utilized materials and design to
match the original Burnham structure."
