Drake Public Library Temporary Location

Drake Public Library is about to undergo a tremendous renovation. It is an exciting plan that directly relates to our mission of being a welcoming center for lifelong learning for our community.

During this renovation, the library will be relocating to a temporary location. That location is at 1101 North 18th Street, in the mall, next door to Cinema 4 Movie Theater.  We will be at this location for the duration of the renovation, which is slated to be complete by July 2018.

Our temporary home will house the vast majority of our book collection, DVDs, audio books, magazines, newspapers and some of our public computers. We request that you call or email the library for an appointment if you need to do genealogy research, as those materials will be at another location. Our book drop will be located at this sight and Library Hours will remain the same: Monday through Friday, 10am until 6pm and Saturdays, 10am until 2pm.  The Little Listeners story time group will still be meeting with Kristin on Wednesdays at 10:30.  Other programming will be advertised throughout the year as we get settled into our temporary site.

We will be moving into our temporary location September 11 through September 16.  During that week, we will be closed to the public.  You will still be able to call us at 867-6676 for assistance or log into your account through the Follett Destiny link on our website drakepubliclibrary.org to renew your materials online.  Any late fees that accrue during the week that we are closed will be forgiven.

We plan on being open to the public, in the temporary location, on Monday, September 18. We know that it won’t be perfect but we want this to be a smooth transition for our patrons and we are focusing on making sure we can still provide the best customer service to our patrons as possible. We hope that you will stop in to see us!
