Homework Center @ NPL


ATTENTION TEENS and THEIR PARENTS! Are you having trouble getting access to a computer outside of school? We have the solution - a designated Homework Only Computer in the NPL Young Adult area! This computer will allow you to gain access to our research databases, Live Homework Help, MS Word, PowerPoint and Excel and the internet. (You must provide your own disk or stick to save documents. Memory sticks are availabe for purchase at the reference desk.) Additionally, a dictionary and thesaurus, paper, pens, pencils, a ruler and a calculator will be available to assist you with your studies. Just one more way the public library is supporting your educational needs.

Come check it out!

Scrapbooking for Teens at the Library



Monday, December 7 from 4:30 - 6:30pm
your friendly YA librarians will host a scrapbooking session just for teens. Meet in the library’s cheery Children’s Program Room and bring your own photos and albums. The library will provide scrapping supplies and snacks. You may bring your own supplies to share or for personal use if you wish.

Bring your photos and your creativity.

Shopping days are flying by; scrapbooks make great Christmas gifts!
