关于我们
The Denver Public Library connects people with information, ideas and experiences to provide enjoyment, enrich lives and strengthen our community. The Library strives to positively impact the community in several Ways, including: Immersing children from birth in literacy-rich environments where they discover the joy of reading and learning, motivating them to achieve and graduate from high school. Improving people's lives by allowing them to acquire the resources and skills needed to prosper and contribute to Denver's economy. Providing a forum where people's lives can be enriched by reading, learning, and engaging in experiences here that make Denver a better place to live. For over a century, the Library has provided educational and entertainment materials to the people of Denver and beyond. Throughout its history, DPL has adapted to meet the changing needs of the community. While books, eBooks, movies, and music still remain important, the Library today acts as a technology hub; a community center where organizations from around the City convene and collaborate; and a welcoming place for lifelong learning. Denver Public Library is funded through the City and County of Denver’s General Fund, and is governed by the eight-member Mayor-appointed Library Commission. The Denver Public Library Friends Foundation, founded in 1940, supports the Library through advocacy and fundraising through memberships, the annual Summer and Winter Used Books Sales, and their signature event, the Booklovers Ball.

Some great interior photos of the Central Denver Public Library! Central is open, so come on over for a visit! #ExploreCentral
Congratulations are in order...the Denver Central Library just had their grand reopening celebration! ?? This 4-year project made possible with the design experts at studiotrope Design Collective and top-notch builders at GH Phipps Construction Companies – truly incredible companies to work along side. Our Team absolutely ROCKED this complex project! There were many intricacies, including numerous phases and an immense amount of site work, utility work, traffic impacts, structural components, and amount of interior tenant improvements to the over 100-year-old library. If you reside in Denver, make your way downtown to experience the beautiful space, which now includes reading rooms on three levels, a cafe, public technology center with 90+ computers, new restrooms, new elevators, community rooms, arts / craft space, an art gallery, the famous Legacy Room, upstairs views of downtown Denver, a banquet area, conference rooms, and lounge areas. It's a sight to behold!

“As seasons change and the days become shorter, I often find myself reaching for books about the natural world. While I’m not an avid nonfiction reader, short books about someone’s love for the outside are among my favorites.” So writes Ashley Love, Librarian and the Central Library. Ashley provides a review of “This is How a Robin Drinks: Essays on Urban Nature.” https://lnkd.in/gtKN9_HB
