Hi Edith,  I suggest posting a message on a Facebook site: Library Think Tank / ALATT HQ.  A nation-wide group of practitioners who are very helpful. You will first need to ask to join the group (easy), but you will likely get messages from Chicagoins who know a thing or two. You'll also get messages of help and support. Great group.  
Best of luck,
Nancy

Hello, all Chicago-based librarians, 

I'm currently open to work and am interested in applying for a library position in Chicago that recently came up.  I need guidance on how to proceed even to be allowed to apply for the job. I live 20 minutes outside of the city but would be willing to move to the city for the job. However, I can't get past the online application because as soon as I enter my current address, it kicks me out for not being a resident of the city of Chicago. 

What can I do/Is there anything I can do to bypass that requirement? 

Kind regards, 

Edith Mendez
