In Chicago, as in many cities, during open hours all public libraries are warming centers in the winter and cooling centers in the summer; they can also provide information on after-hours services for those in need, including not just the homeless but (especially in the summer) people with housing that has insufficient climate control. Libraries: books AND central heating! -- source link
