Adventure Pass Changes in 2025

Due to software issues affecting all libraries using the service, the Des Moines Public Library’s Iowa Adventure Pass program will no longer be available in 2025. Any reservation already made for 2025 will be honored, but we encourage anyone with a current reservation to print those passes immediately. Customers can make new reservations for passes that must be used by December 31, 2024. We hope to reintroduce the service at a later time, and we apologize for the inconvenience.

Program Description

Event Details

Join us for a monthly conversation around a life-changing nonfiction book.  Each month we’ll select a book that will change your perspective, give you new strategies for handling life’s challenges, or deepen your understanding of a topic.

This month, in a special collaboration with the Des Moines Art Center and their exhibit Hurricane Season: Caribbean Art and Climate Change (June 8 - September 22, 2024) we will be reading Not Too Late: Changing the Climate Story from Despair to Possibility edited by Rebecca Solnit.  We will meet at the Des Moines Art Center, tour the exhibit, and hold the discussion there afterwards.

Limited copies of the book will be available at the Central Library Pickup Window starting May 9.
