As summer approaches, it’s the perfect time to make sure your child’s Novi library card is active and ready to use! If your child doesn’t yet have a Novi library card, stop by the Novi Public Library and sign up - it’s quick, free and opens the door to a world of books, digital resources and so much more!
Having an up-to-date library card also ensures your child can fully participate in the Summer Reading Program, which runs through August 9. This program encourages students to keep reading all summer long with special events and great prizes. Summer reading is not only fun but also helps students stay academically engaged while school is out. Visit novilibrary.org/summerreading for more information and sign up for the Library’s Summer Reading Program!

Story from the Novi Note
NOVI — The Novi Community School District has implemented numerous safety measures to protect the children within the district, and the school board received a report on the district’s efforts during a Jan. 23 meeting.
Dennis Huisman, supervisor of safety and security for NCSD, presented the board with all the safety measures that have been implemented within the district since June of 2023.
According to Huisman, one of the biggest things the district has implemented is the Raptor Emergency Management app. The app is on all staff phones and acts as an emergency button that coincides with Alyssa’s law. This means that as soon as the button is clicked, it will automatically call for law enforcement assistance.
