Winter Reading Challenge

From January 1 through January 31, NPL is participating in Beanstack's Fifth Annual Winter Reading Challenge, sponsored by Lerner Publishing Group. "Read for a Better World" encourages readers of all ages to explore diversity, empathy, and action through literature. We challenge our community to read 10,000 minutes during the month! Guests who log 600 minutes and complete at least 3 activity badges during that time will also be entered into a prize drawing to win an interactive reading poster and a book tote created in our iCube Makerspace! Keep track of your reading on our Beanstack website or the Beanstack Tracker Mobile App.

New in 2022!

Look out for a brand new service coming to NPL in February! NPL @ Your Door will be a service provided to Novi residents to receive library materials by mail: books, movies, audiobooks, and more! If residents are unable to come to the library due to accessibility, illness, or other issues, NPL can mail materials to a resident's home. To qualify for the NPL @ Your Door program, a resident must have a valid NPL card in good standing, and be 18 years or older to apply. For more information about this service, check our website, novilibrary.org, at the end of January!
