Do you love the library? Are you looking for a meaningful volunteer opportunity in Des Plaines?
One is a three-year full term and one is a two-year replacement-term position.
We are compiling a list of possible candidates to submit to Mayor Matt Bogusz for consideration to fill those vacant seats. Unlike some other communities where trustees are elected, DPPL trustee positions are mayoral appointments. If you would like to be considered:
DPPL board members must be residents of incorporated Des Plaines.

We even deliver to folks in their homes if they are unable to get to the library due to health or disability. Once a month they receive a bag of books, movies, and/or music.
We'll bring anything the library offers, all personally selected for them based on their tastes and preferences. It’s like Christmas comes every month.
We open at 9:00am today.
