About Us

The Northfield Township Area Library resides in the historic Dodge House on Barker Road in Whitmore Lake, Michigan. The Library was founded in 1989 and over the last 30 years has expanded to bring library services to Northfield Township and the surrounding area. We have over 7,200 patrons and over 21,000 items in our collection. We are pleased and humbled to be able to continue to provide access to the latest technologies, free events, and an expanded collection full of resources for our community.
Our History
Our mission and vision influence everything we do.
​In 2018 we revamped our mission and vision to match the direction of the future of the Library. 

Mission

To empower our community through literacy, information, and technology.
Vision
