Library Receives Michigan Certification!
The Library of Michigan has awarded NPL a certificate of completion for meeting the Essential Level requirements of the Quality Services Audit Checklist (QSAC)!  To earn this certification the Library established the ability of success in seven categories including Human Resources, Governance/Administration, Services, Collection Development, Technology, Facilities and Equipment and Public Relations/Marketing.  
With three levels of achievement such as Essential, Enhanced and Excellence offered by QSAC, NPL has a goal of reaching all three, and with the excellent staff at the Library, it is possible!  Huge thank you to Jessica Schenk, Librarian, for working on this project this year!
