Service Interruption: Friday, October 16th after 9 pm – Tuesday, October 20th morning
Our network is growing! We are excited to welcome Rolling Meadows Library and Wauconda Area Public Library to our consortium. This means more resources at your fingertips, from books to movies and more. During this period, please note that our app, calendar and some additional online resources will be temporarily unavailable. Rest assured, none of your items will be due during this time and you can still check out materials. Full service is expected to resume on Tuesday, October 20th. Thank you for your understanding and patience during this exciting time!
Starting May 1st, Des Plaines Public Library is joining hundreds of libraries across the United States, and 23 other libraries in our local CCS consortium, in eliminating overdue fines!
We look forward to welcoming past users back and meeting new members of the community!
Back in the fall of 2020, we decided that we wanted to create a program to celebrate the popular characters and stories that the children of Des Plaines were checking out during the pandemic.
But, this program had to happen with both of us SAFELY in a room together.
In the April edition of the Des Plaines Memory Newsletter, we take a look at our urban spaces. For better or worse, the downtown landscape is always changing, and not every building will stand the test of time.
Also in this edition: trashy sign of the times; history-related Zoom events; and more!
