Now Available: Legal Aid

The library now has access to a new internet-based legal self-help center.  The new center will provide legal information to lower income people in Warren County who are not able to find a lawyer to represent them in court.  The internet-based center also provides legal information on a variety of non-court legal issues such as unemployment compensation, Medicare, Medicaid and many other topics.   The Warren County Legal Self-Help Center can be found at http://warren.illinoislegalaid.org.  For those individuals who do not have a computer with internet access, public access computers are available at the Warren County Public Library in Monmouth.
