Discover All That the Iowa City Public Library Has to Offer—Right Outside Our Doors!
Join us outside the College Street entrance to the Iowa City Public Library, where the ICPL Book Bike will be parked on the Ped Mall and packed with resources, free books, and friendly faces.
Whether you’re a longtime library user or just curious about what’s inside, this is a great opportunity to learn more about ICPL’s wide range of services and programs. From our diverse book and media collections—including audiobooks, DVDs, and multilingual materials—to our digital resources like eBooks, streaming services, and research databases, there’s something for everyone.
You can also find out about:
Upcoming author visits, concerts, and community events
Programs for kids, teens, and adults—including storytimes, art workshops, and book clubs
Free access to technology, like public computers, printing, and Wi-Fi hotspots
Job search tools, small business support, and lifelong learning opportunities
Volunteer and giving opportunities through the Library Friends Foundation
Katie Roche, Director of the Iowa City Public Library Friends Foundation, will be on hand to chat, answer questions, and share ways to get involved and support the Library's mission. And don’t leave empty-handed—pick out a free book to take home, yours to keep as a gift from the ICPL Friends Foundation!
In case of rain, find us just inside the Library in the lobby. We can’t wait to see you!
If you need disability-related accommodations in order to participate in this event, please contact the Library.
This event is open to the public.
