The Pritzker Military Library is a state-of-the-art private research library located at 610 North Fairbanks Court in the Streeterville neighborhood of Chicago, near the Magnificent Mile. The 5,000 sq. ft. facility features over 26,000 historical, reference, biographical and rare books on military subjects, over 800 original antique military posters and prints, and other military artifacts from private donors and the collection of COL (IL) James N. Pritzker, ARNG (Ret.). Since opening in October 2003, the Library has produced over 160 programs including author events, one-on-one interviews with Medal of Honor recipients, and a monthly military affairs panel program, Front & Center with John Callaway. Evening programs in the Library's McHenry Atrium are presented free of charge in front of a live audience, broadcast live on the internet, and archived as part of the Library's collection. Library programs are typically broadcast on WYCC Channel 20, a PBS affiliate, and are also available in podcast format at iTunes and Yahoo!, among others. A complimentary wine and cheese reception for our Associate Members precedes each evening program. Books are provided for purchase and signing by The Book Stall.
