Check Out a Pass to Peoria Riverfront Museum!

Thanks to sponsorship from the Peoria Riverfront Museum’s Visionary Society, Dunlap Public Library District cardholders can now borrow a pass to the Peoria Riverfront Museum!

The pass will be checked out on a first-come, first-served basis to Dunlap patrons with a valid, in good standing Dunlap library card. The pass can be used on the day of checkout or the following day, only. The pass includes general admission to all exhibits, galleries, and daytime planetarium shows for two adults and their children or grandchildren.

Passes cannot be reserved, placed on hold, or checked out over the phone. Passes must be checked out in person at the library. Please note that they are non-transferable. Borrowing patrons will be asked for their library card and photo ID to gain admission to the museum.

DPLD Strategic Plan 2023-2026

layout of strategic plan

To align our resources with the changing priorities of the community, our library began a strategic planning process, starting with feedback from the community last August. By implementing a new strategic plan, our library will be able to focus efforts on expanding community engagement, maximizing the use of library spaces, and focusing on the future of services, staffing, and financial sustainability.

Our Strategic Plan is available for viewing here or you may stop by the Circulation Desk to view a paper copy. Thank you for your continued support of the Dunlap Public Library District!
