Martin Luther King Jr. Day Closures

The scoop on what's shut down for the federal holiday

Happy Martin Luther King Jr. Day. Though you may be working on this federal holiday, some of Chicago isn't.

Federal, state, county and city offices are all closed, along with most banks, city libraries and Chicago Public Schools. Most suburban schools also are closed.

If you're expecting anything via snail mail, don't worry about checking for it today. The postal service also is closed.

But not to worry, public transit is keeping normal hours.
