Adventure Pass Changes in 2025 Due to software issues affecting all libraries using the service, the Kendall Young Library’s Iowa Adventure Pass program will no longer be available in 2025. Any reservation already made for 2025 will be honored, but we encourage anyone with a current reservation to print those passes immediately. Customers can make new reservations for passes that must be used by December 31, 2024. Adventure Pass is working on finding a new software to get it back up and running as soon as possible
