March is National Reading Month and the Novi Public Library is encouraging the Novi community to read this month! Reading is a key component of education and professional development, and has long-lasting health benefits, such as helping improve cognitive function, memory, vocabulary and so much more.
If you don’t already have a Novi library card, stop in and visit! Novi residents can sign up for a free library card using a valid picture ID and proof of Novi residency. The Library is open Monday-Thursday, 10am-9pm, Friday & Saturday, 10am-6pm and Sunday, 12-6pm. Now that you have a card, you can check out all of the reading materials the Library has to offer! Search the
online catalog to find a book in the collection or place a hold for it to get sent to the library. Browse the shelves for books, newspapers, magazines, audiobooks, and international language books and newspapers.
Not sure what to read? Novi Library has book lists for all ages!
