The building is beautiful, and every time I visit I notice something new. The staff are always welcoming, friendly, and willing to help, which makes the library feel comfortable and inviting. What I appreciate most is that there are so many activities and events that are free or very low cost. There are plenty of programs for teens, families, and adults, and everyone is welcome. It's definitely worth the drive from the suburbs if you're looking for a unique place to spend a few hours. Between the architecture, the helpful staff, and all the community events, it's one of the coolest libraries I've visited. I wish I would have known about this place when my boys were little, it would be a great stop after visiting the museum.

A beautiful library filled with tons of amazing resources and interesting and unique finds!…read moreOne of the things I loved was that this branch has a music library! I could spend all day just in that section. You can look at (and check out) all sorts of things from musical scores, concert programs, newspaper clippings and more. They even have instruments you can check out! I don't think there is any other library in the area that offers this sort of department. There is something for everyone here (and then some!). I've been here with my kids when they were babies and have taken them here for a variety of programs or even just to stop in when we are in the area. There are plenty of places to relax and enjoy your book (including a cafe) but lots of quiet nooks and seating areas as well. There is no parking lot specific to the library, but there is a ton of metered parking in the area. I highly recommend visiting this library, especially if you are looking for something unique. Or even just to enjoy some quiet time in a beautiful space.

Take a look at the calendar and you will find crafting classes (I've made jewelry, painted, made a scarecrow wreath), attended talks on local and national political issues, heard from Holocaust survivors and been entertained by magicians and musicians. They have foreign language classes, game nights and even karaoke! The upper floor is the "adult" section where they have all the books and media geared towards adults. It also houses event rooms, computers and the maker space. I think one of my favorite and unique things about this library is all the unique things you can take out. They have everything from cake decorating kits to power tools! Even outdoor games. They also have a fabric "library" where you can grab fabric, threads and patterns for free for your sewing or other project needs. The downstairs level has an events space and the children's room. The children's room is always a buzz with activity and in addition to a lot of books, they also have a puppet theater and tons of educational toys to keep your little ones occuped. The only down side to the library is that the parking lot is at the side of the building. If you have acceccibility needs, there are a few spaces close to the entrance, but otherwise you have a short walk down the sidewalk to get into the main entrance. I love our local library and hope everyone knows about and takes advantage of all of its amazing materials and services.

We also enjoyed the Christmas party, where the kids got to make gingerbread houses out of recycled milk cartons, graham crackers, icing and all the candy and other goodies. Santa was there, along with a hot chocolate bar. This library knows how to keep kids engaged and make learning and reading fun. I'm so glad we have such a wonderful local library.

In December 2025, Northland Public Library completed a construction project that included a two-story building extension, accessible lower-level entrance, Commonplace Coffee cafe, teen space, mezzanine reading level, upper Conference Room, staircase, centralized service desk, and relocated Book Nook bookstore. For years my husband and I have been customers of this library. Most recently my husband frequently checked out DVDs, and we drank beverages in the Commonplace Coffee. We thought that the renovated area looked very nice and was a significant improvement. We really like this library and expect to use it more in the future.
