latest release. Unfortunately, they do not provide a binary

Actually, they do provide prebuilt binaries for Windows now [1]
. I'm so used to compiling it myself I forgot all about that.

And just to be clear, the typical thing to do on Windows is to
put this in the same directory as the binary. I like to set a
targetPath directive in my dub.sdl/json for a bin directory so
that the executable is created there. Then I just save the dll in
the bin directory.
// dub.json
"targetPath": "bin",
// dub.sdl
targetPath "bin"
So then the project tree looks like:
- myproj
-- bin
--- glfw3.dll
-- source
--- app.d
-- dub.sdl
Your exectuable will be output to the bin directory and
DerelictGLFW3.load should find the DLL just fine.
