Your Des Moines Public Library offers an investigative team to stock your imagination - Des Moines Register

We know our readers love browsing the library shelves, so being unable to search for a book when you don’t know what you want to read is frustrating while our buildings remain closed to the public.

Though you can’t browse right now, a new team at the Des Moines Public Library has the goal of helping you find your next great read, and all you have to do is answer a few questions.

Book Chat is a service to help you start your reading journey, no matter what genre you read. It’s as easy as going to our brand-new Book Chat webpage (dmpl.org/book-chat) or calling the brand new Book Chat hotline (515-248-6286).

You’ll just have to answer a few questions about what you want to read and how many items you’d like to borrow, and our Book Chat team will be on the case. In most requests, you’ll get a list of suggestions back within 3-5 days, and our Book Chat team will even put those items on hold for you to pick up using curbside pickup at any location.

You can fill out the Book Chat Form anytime at dmpl.org/book-chat, and the Book Chat hotline is live between 10 AM and 5 PM, Monday through Friday.

Book Chat is great for readers of all ages, but there’s even an easier solution if you just want a quick pile of books: Leave it up to the librarians and request a Book Bundle.

Our Book Chat team will grab a bundle of books available to check out instantly – 10 books for children, five for adults. All you have to do is tell us what reading level the child is at, or what genre or collection you would like to read. Fill out the form on the Book Chat website or call the Book Chat hotline and request a Book Bundle, and we’ll have the bundle ready within one business day.

To learn more about Book Chat, go to dmpl.org/book-chat or call the hotline: 515-248-6286.

Make Every Night a Movie Night

Did you know that you can borrow DVDs for FREE from the Des Moines Public Library?

While we are closed to the public, we have waived our $1 DVD rental fees. Just place a hold on any DVD on our website, head over to your local curbside pickup location to pick it up, and it’s yours for seven days. Even better, there are some very popular recent hits with few or no holds on them, such as the newest Best Picture-winning Parasite, Knives Out, Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood, Ford v. Ferrari, and more.

Plus, there are lots of family-friendly films available, including your favorites from Disney, Dreamworks and other studios.
