Request a Visit

Our librarians love to bring all the library has to offer out into the community! We offer storytimes, research assistance, library card drives, informational presentations,  WoW Truck visits, and more. We also offer onsite field trips to our location for library tours, resource demonstrations, school project work, and special programs.

If you are interested in any of these options, please complete the form below and we will get in touch to finalize the details of your desired event. Please submit any request at least two weeks in advance. If you are requesting more than one visit or event, please submit a form for each class or group.

Note: Outreach and offsite visits are available to organizations in our library service area (City of West Des Moines, the West Des Moines portion of Dallas, Warren, and Madison counties, and the City of Cumming.)

What would you like to do during your WoW Truck visit?
The Words on Wheels truck is a Ford 350 pickup truck with a sizeable box on the back. Patrons approach the vehicle from the outside along the panels of the truck, which fold open to provide access to shelving and screens. Please provide details about where library staff will park the truck during your visit. If your event requires library staff to set up in a parking lot, we will need to be placed along an outer edge and have 4-6 standard parking spots reserved in advance. Ideal parking is along a sidewalk as close to the front entrance of your facility as possible, for user safety.
