Have you found yourself without a job? The library is here to help! This special tech Tuesday will cover how to file for unemployment, as well as provide you with information on how to connect with local government and non-profit resources to offer assistance. This session will take place in the first floor meeting room of the library and is limited to 10 patrons. Sign up here!
Do you wish that you spent more time reading books or magazines on your phone than mindlessly scrolling? Do you wish that audiobook subscriptions were cheaper (or free!)? Do you have the urge to read a new book at midnight when the library is closed? The Digital Library of Illinois is here for you! The digital library offers a massive number of ebook, eaudiobook and magazine titles available to browse and borrow for free with your library card at any time of the day or night.
Also available on your phone or tablet via the Libby app.
Do you have a burning question about Danville’s past that you want answered? The archive is here for you!

The archive is available by appointment any time the library is open. You can reserve a spot by calling (217) 477-5228, emailing reference_desk@danvillepubliclibrary.org or filling out our form here.
