A
We
all
know
this
is
a
very
trying
time
for
our
community,
our
state
and
indeed
our
country-
and
we
here
at
Des,
Moines
Public
Library,
aren't
doing
our
best
to
accommodate
our
patrons
as
well
as
we
can
during
this
difficult
time,
and
we've
got
a
lot
actually
kind
of
exciting
offerings.
During
this
strange
time,
we've
got
digital
cards
for
the
very
first
time.
A
We've
never
offered
digital
cards
before
usually
have
to
come
into
the
library,
but
now
we
are
offering
digital
cards
online
and
you
will
have
access
to
our
ebooks
a
magazine
all
of
our
downloadable
streaming
products
as
well
as
many
many
databases.
We
have
been
super
busy
cleaning
from
top
to
bottom,
all
of
our
services,
our
workstations,
even
our
books
and
we're
wearing
gloves,
and
we
are
cleaning
rugs
and
we
are
doing
everything
so
when
you
come
back
you're
going
to
find
a
very
tiny
and
very
clean
and
organized
library.
A
So
that's
one
thing:
we
can't
wait
to
get
our
people
back,
who
don't
know
when
that's
going
to
be.
We
will
take
direction
from
city
leaders
as
well
as
our
board
of
trustees
and
they'll.
Let
us
know
when
they
think
it
is
safe
to
open
our
doors
to
the
public.
In
the
meantime,
I
do
hope
you
get
a
digital
card,
download
some
of
our
movies,
our
acorn
British
programming
streaming
that
you
could
do
try
some
of
our
a
magazines,
we're
really
getting
creative
here
at
the
library
and
what
we
can
offer.
A
Who
knows
what
we're
going
to
offer
next
we're
hoping
to
do
some
digital?
Maybe
Facebook
live
streaming
story
times.
What
information
can
we
give
you
please
check
our
website
out:
DM
PL
org.
There
is
so
much
information
about
what
the
library
has
to
offer
our
databases
that
we
have
to
offer.
Maybe
now's
a
good
time
to
learn
a
new
language.
We've
got
mango
learning
for
that.
Everyone
needs
news
right
now
and
we
have
access
to
the
New
York
Times.
We
have
so
many
different
things.
