NAPPANEE — Library tour, hours, meetings and more occurring at Nappanee Public Library.

Nappanee Library Tour

Did you know you could use a VHS to DVD converter or check out a portable die cut machine at the Nappanee Public Library? How about “selfie sticks” or jigsaw puzzles? There are more than books at the Library. New cardholders and those interested in learning more about the Library are invited to a guided tour of the Nappanee Public Library at 7 p.m. Monday, Dec. 21.

In addition to discovering where to find current bestsellers, a favorite cookbook, or the daily news, participants will be introduced to many special services. These include the Library’s makerspace, online catalog, eMedia, computers and copiers for use in the library; framed original art, CDs, DVDs and many other materials for loan.

The library, located at 157 N. Main St., holds the tour the third Monday of every month and by appointment.
