Des Plaines Public Library Events for Adults

Read Conclave by Robert Harris and then come discuss it with us at the Des Plaines Public Library. Try to watch the 2024 film as well to do a film and book comparison.

The pope is dead. Behind the locked doors of the Sistine Chapel, one hundred and eighteen cardinals from all over the globe will cast their votes in the world's most secretive election. They are holy men. But they have ambition. And they have rivals. Over the next seventy-two hours one of them will become the most powerful spiritual figure on Earth.

Copies of these books are available at the Readers Services desk on the 3rd floor of the library. Registration required. The book club will meet in the Commons on the Third Floor of the Des Plaines Public Library @ 10:00am on September 8th.

Using the internet has become increasingly important in everyday living and completing personal goals. Join your fellow seniors to learn how to work with an internet browser, use search terms for successful searches and understand tools to protect your internet privacy.

This class will take place in the Library's 4th floor Forum space.

Set up your planner, bullet journal, or notebook for the next month. Destash your collection and share with others, or find new inspiration for your upcoming spreads with fellow journalers. We'll have materials on hand to help you create your spreads for the weeks and months ahead.

Meet fellow board gamers! Play a game from the Library's collection or bring your own.

This program will meet on the first floor in Meeting Room B/C.
