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.

At this out-of-court, court, our Peer Support Specialists will connect participants with service providers. Thank you to our hosts, the Denver Public Library and Denver AID Center.

The neighborhood publication “Urban News Wash Park” profiled our Eugene Field Branch. You can learn more about the branch and how, as our Branch Supervisor Robin Filipczak said, “Libraries are becoming more than just places to borrow books; they act as community hubs for learning and skill-building.”?
