Thank you to the Friends of the Library for your generous $29,700.00 contribution. These funds will be used for various projects in 2019-2020. We are so grateful for your continued commitment and support!
The Book Nook
Book with Pages as Heart
Do you know that we have a gem in the Novi Public Library? At least, that's what some people have called it! The Book Nook houses donated items including books, DVD's, CD's, large print and children's books, mostly selling for a dollar or less. We had a successful Christmas in July sale, and are now looking forward to the annual children's book sale. 

If you're looking for a cookbook, audiobook or your next beach read, the Book Nook is always open. Come in and see why you'll be calling it a little gem too!
More Laptops for Checkout!  Laptop Photo
With the closing of the Computer Lab, our lending laptops have increased to four, they have received a hardware upgrade, and a mouse is also now available! Check one out for use in the Library. Ages 18+.
Library Etiquette
People with Talking Bubbles
You may not have known, but the Library has areas designated for quiet study and areas for conversation. If you need to get some studying done and prefer a quiet area, then the second floor is for you. Quiet conversation is allowed, or you can use our quiet study room for even less noise.

The first floor is a "talking" floor. You are welcome to have conversations, however it is a balance. We ask you to be mindful of those around you so that everyone can enjoy the Library.

Remember too that the staff is here to help you find the perfect spot for your needs!
