Edgar County Watchdogs - Video: Illinois Secretary of State v. Atlanta Public Library District


Mid-2017, we started our investigations of troubling activity within the Atlanta Public Library District.

One of the items uncovered was a “Live and Learn” Grant of $25,000 made by the Illinois Secretary of State Library to the APLD. This grant dealt with a faked lease/purchase agreement where no payments were ever made towards that agreement, and later, several leases, all of which financially benefitted APLD Trustee and Treasurer William “Bill” Thomas.
