We prove generating function identities producing fast convergent series for the sequences beta(2n + 1); beta(2n + 2) and beta(2n + 3), where beta is Dirichlet's beta function. In particular, we obtain a new accelerated series for Catalan's constant convergent at a geometric rate with ratio 2(-10); which can be considered as an analog of Amdeberhan-Zeilberger's series for zeta(3)
