Summer Reading 2025

June 2 - July 12

 Join the Kendallville Public Library’s 2025 Summer Reading Program, running June 2 through July 12. Readers of all ages can stop by either library branch to pick up materials and start earning prizes!

 Adults will receive a reading log sheet (no bookmark this year!) and a KPL-themed coloring book with their first entry. Each completed sheet earns you 6 entries into our grand prize drawings—only one sheet per person can be completed. Prizes include art-themed kits like diamond painting, crochet, embroidery, punch needle, and colorful yard art!

 Youth will receive a game board to track their reading and activities. They can earn up to six prizes and enter the grand prize drawings as many times as they like. Prize options vary by age group and include fun picks like Berenstain Bears, Thomas the Train, perler beads, paint pouring, clay, mosaics, and more creative activities to match our theme.


Get ready to read, create, and be inspired all summer long!

Exciting improvements are coming to the Kendallville Public Library!

   

The Kendallville Public Library is embarking on a building project to create a more functional, welcoming, and accessible space for our community. As the needs of our patrons continue to grow, we are making thoughtful updates to ensure the library remains a hub for learning, creativity, and connection.

This project will enhance the overall layout and design of the library, making it easier to navigate and more comfortable for all visitors. One of the key goals is to create flexible spaces that accommodate a variety of needs, from quiet reading areas to dynamic gathering spots for programs and events. By modernizing the library, we aim to provide an environment that fosters engagement and lifelong learning.

Stay informed with the latest updates, project timelines, and details on how these changes will benefit you. We appreciate your support and patience as we work to make KPL an even better place for learning, creativity, and connection.

Learn more about the project here.

Thank you to our READ Donors!

The last time we conducted our READ (Reading, Education and Discovery) fundraising campaign was back in 2020. Then, we began the letter to supporters with “The Kendallville Public Library is engaging with the community like never before.” Little did we know then how even more true that would be now!

Every day we strive to bring new initiatives to our community to improve the quality of life for those around us. We’re partnering with local organizations to deepen the impact we have on the people we serve. We live here, we work here, and we are doing all we can to help the area thrive.

Our donors have recognized the work we are doing, and really came through this year. So far we have received donations totalling $3,175 earmarked to a variety of programs at the Kendallville Public Library. THANK YOU!

Take a Trip to the ACD Museum!

In addition to passes to Science Central and the Botanical Conservatory, KPL has added a Family Pass to the Auburn Cord Duesenberg Museum in Auburn. This pass is good for up to 2 adults at the same address and their dependent children.

In the museum, most of the cars are drivable and many are in carefully-restored condition.  The museum has a state-of-the-art Collections Conservation Center that was completed in 2015 to support the care and preservation of this priceless collection.

Plan your visit at https://automobilemuseum.org/ and reserve the pass here.

Looking for a Notary? Look no further!

The Kendallville Public Library now has Notary Service available.

A Notary Public is an individual commissioned by the State of Indiana to serve as an impartial witness and fraud deterrent for legally significant documents such as property deeds, marriage licenses and adoption papers. Notaries defer fraud by verifying individuals’ identity and ensuring that all parties understand the contents of the documents they sign.

Schedule an appointment with Notary Michelle Herron by calling 343-2010 or emailing her at mherron@kendallvillelibrary.org. There is no cost for this service.

Michelle Herron is not an attorney licensed to practice law in Indiana. She is not allowed to draft legal records, give advice on legal matters, including immigration or charge a fee for these activities.
