Welcome to the Mitchellville Public Library Website. We hope you are staying healthy and able to take advantage of our curbside services, computer access, and online services.

We open Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday 10:00 pm-6:00 pm and Saturday 9:00 am-2:00 pm. Please call us at 515-967-3339 to ask for books, audiobooks, and DVDs for the curbside. Or you can go directly to our catalog on our website, www.mitchellville.lib.ia.us to reserve books and other library materials. We will pull your requests, check them out to you, bag them up, and then call you when they are ready to be picked up. When you arrive at the library, call us at 515-967-3339 to let us know you are here, and we will deliver your books to your car.

We do homebound deliveries to your home within safe guidelines dictated by local, county, state, and federal public health authorities. Please call 515-967-3339

Computers are limited to one hour; however, please ask for additional time if you need to use the computer longer. Your computer station will be cleaned before and after your use. You can also take advantage of our Wi-Fi service that can be accessed from the library parking lot. Our WiFi is MVPL sign-on and waits for continuing to appear, click it, and then you’re on our WiFi.

We urge you to explore the library’s online resources from Bridges Overdrive, Libby, and many other resources and entertainment options. All are accessible from our library website, www.Mitchellville.lib.ia.us – then scroll down on our home page. You will need a library card to access it. If you do not have a library card, you may call the library and we can help you.

Please come and visit us.
