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

This month we will be reading and discussing The Curious Charms of Arthur Pepper by Phaedra Patrick. Copies of the book are available at the North Side Library.

Large print copies are available upon request and e-audiobook copies are available on Libby. We hope you will join us!

In an effort to keep our book club at a safe size and still hold it in-person, we have temporarily split the group into two. Please know you will be asked to sign up for one time when you check out your book. One group will meet at 11:00am, and one group will meet at 1:00pm. We will do our best to keep the groups an even size to ensure both time slots have participants.
