When we expose
someone to a writer
like Updike, we
help make Denver
a much more
interesting place.
For the Denver Public
Library, 2008 was a year
of accomplishments,
and also challenges.
_
The Democratic National Convention was a
highlight of the year, with meetings and events
happening at Library locations. Our display of
historic artifacts from Denver’s 1908 convention
drew hundreds of first-time visitors to Central.
2008 also brought the beginning of the current
economic downturn. Customers came to us
in unprecedented numbers, seeking assistance
in the job market, bringing their children to
storytimes and programs, and logging on to
computers. Many customers rediscovered
the Library while others stepped foot in our
doors for the first time ever to check out books,
CDs, and DVDs, get resume advice, or attend
classes, all without spending a dime.
