Did You Know?

WE HAVE MOVED!

In order to make way for construction of the new Norwell Public Library, the library has temporarily moved to 1207 Washington Street in Hanover. We are easy to find, just across the parking lot from Target and next door to the Dollar Tree. Library hours are the same: Mon/Tue/Wed 10-8 and Thu/Fri/Sat 10-5. NPL's temporary space holds our full collection of books, movies, music, magazines, and other materials, a welcoming children's area, public computers, Wi-fi, study space, comfortable seating, and our familiar, friendly, helpful staff. Note that we can only accept returns during regular library hours but, if needed, most items can be returned to any OCLN library. We look forward to seeing you!
