HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Home Delivery Service

Just a friendly reminder that Norwood Public Library and Norwood Lioness work together to provide books to those who cannot come to the library due to medical or physical issues. If you or someone you know loves to read, but is in a situation that limits the ability to visit the library, give us a call and see what we can do to help.

ANPL Partners with CNIB

The staff at Asphodel-Norwood Public Library are pleased to announce that we have partnered with CNIB to give our patrons with print disabilities more selection and opportunities to enjoy good books. If you or someone you know needs audiobooks due to a print disability, come in and see our new selection of DAISY materials.

You can also sign up directly with CNIB to get audiobooks delivered directly to you. Ask a staff member for more information.

Jazzy Preschool Program

Norwood Branch – Friday Mornings.

Everyone knows how much young children love to sing, dance, and make things. Bring your little one and join us every Friday morning at 10:00am for an hour filled with fun stories, songs and crafts.

A new storytime schedule will be coming soon. To see a quick preview of the craft, click the link in our January activities and events post above.
