Visit Decatur Public Library

Whether you are looking to attend a class or event, socialize with friends, borrow from our extensive collection of books and movies, or use our computers and databases, the opportunities are endless at Decatur Public Library.

Along with the DPL collection of resources in-house, we have a wealth of online resources, educational and entertaining, that you can access with your smartphone, tablet, or computer from home with your Decatur Public Library card. Let us know if we can help you get started with those.

A card holder may also choose an e-card that allows access to our online resources only. All card holders can use any of the vast amounts of online resources found on the Decatur Public Library website.
