I hope you like our library's new web presence. Staff have worked for several months to make our web site more navigable and convenient for our customers. All of us would be interested in your comments and suggestions on how we can continue to improve the site.
In the coming months, our library will be making efforts to increase its electronic footprint. Expect investments in online tutoring, downloadable audio, and perhaps downloadable video. We need to know: if we buy it, will you use it?
The nature of our traditional reference services is also changing. More and more of what we offer will be digital products that are available in the library as well as 24/7 from your home computer. Take the time to explore the products available to you through our web page and don't hesitate to let us know what you think of current products and to make suggestions for future acquisition.
Ultimately our responsibility is to provide a good return on investment to the Des Moines community that supports us with their tax dollars. While we have many measures, one of the best is your input. Are you getting your money's worth?

I love the online catalog. I just wish you guys had more urban literature.
While I appreciate all the work people have done on this new website, I have to say I hate it. The colors are grim and it's not lively. It needs some cheery colors and stick figures doing library-like things as well as a little redesign. Why not have a contest for teens to submit their own ideas of what needs to happen? They're the ones we need to entice into the library. Forward!!!
