• In honor of 'Dolly Day,' Pace unveils little library at suburban stations (chicagotribune.com) — Pace riders in Bolingbrook can soon grab free books at the local transit station, where a Dolly Parton–inspired little library will be installed once a shipping delay is resolved. The agency is rolling out similar boxes across suburban hubs to encourage riders and their families to read, with employees helping stock the first round of titles.
