Walk into NDL’s Youth Department and you immediately know who hangs out here: curious kids, tired grown-ups, and families who came for “just one book” and left with five. 😉📚♥️

Maybe there's a name you've heard your whole life. A place your grandparents came from. Or a branch of the family tree that simply…stops.

That's where the fun begins. 🔎

With HeritageQuest, NDL members can explore historical records and genealogy resources that may help uncover pieces of their family history.

- Look for relatives in historical records
- Build out your family research
- Discover names, places and connections
- Follow a question and see where it leads

Because genealogy isn't really about collecting names and dates. It's about discovering the people behind them.

Your family's story started long before you.

Your NDL card can help you look for the next chapter.

Our lower-level painting project is coming along nicely! All study rooms were painted yesterday and will be available today.

As painting continues today:
• Public computers will be unavailable
• The counter seating near the restrooms will be closed
• The Teen Fiction collection will be temporarily inaccessible
• Access to the Local History Room may also be limited

Thank you for your patience as we freshen up the Library!

Will checking out 12 books, 5 movies, and 2 video games fix everything? No. But do we believe in conducting further research to see if we get different results. Absolutely. Do we think results will be more successful if you check out 15 books, 8 movies and 4 video games? We don’t know. But please don’t compromise this study by returning anything early. Unless of course you’re done reading, or watching the movies.

“Research both sides of the issue.”

Easy enough…until you're staring at 27 tabs wondering which sources you can actually use. 😵‍💫

Before your next paper, presentation or debate, try Opposing Viewpoints with your NDL card:
🔎 Explore current social issues
↔️ Compare different perspectives
📚 Find credible sources for your research
🧠 Understand the arguments before forming your own

Because a stronger argument doesn't start with finding information that agrees with you. It starts with understanding the issue.

Your research has to start somewhere. NDL can make that somewhere a little easier.

Want to take a fitness class, but getting to one is the hard part? 🧘

Maybe your schedule is packed. Maybe you’d rather exercise at home. Or maybe you just want to try something new without paying for another subscription.

With your NDL card, you can access OMpractice for free, with live, online classes you can join from wherever you feel comfortable—including yoga, fitness, meditation and more. Many offer alternate movements and include instruction for participation by sitting in a chair.

No commute. No membership fee. Just find a class that works for you and show up as you are.

Your next class could be as close as your living room - find it on NDL's website and browse the upcoming online classes: northvillelibrary.org > orange EXPLORE tab > All databases > O tab > Ompractice > use your NDL card to login.

Don't have an NDL card but live in Northville? C'mon in to visit us at the checkout desk with your picture ID, and we'll check your address to verify residency then sign you up for a library card!

Images feature three of the upcoming online classes in the next few weeks.

You know that feeling when you’re downtown and everything you love about your community is just a short walk away?

Coffee. Dinner. A favorite shop. A familiar face. And your library.

A place to wander in, find something unexpected, stay awhile, or run into someone you know.

Sometimes the things that make a town feel like home are the places that bring us together.
