NEW BERLIN – The New Berlin Library has five patron computers that the public can use free of charge. There is a black and white printer available and prints can be purchased for a minimal charge. A scanner was recently added that the public can use free of charge. Most recently, the library was alerted to the fact that the public needed headphones and a webcam for interviews and test taking.

A webcam was purchased and added to one of the patrons computers for public use. Several sets of headphones have also been purchased. Headphones are available for use by asking at the circulation desk. For issues of sanitation, disposable ear covers will be provided and are required during use of library owned headphones.

New Berlin library staff is available to assist members of the public who are less computer literate with computer usage as well as the new computer accessories. Please call the library to schedule computer use.

The library will be closed on several dates to allow staff to travel and celebrate the holidays. The library will be closed Saturday December 24th, Monday December 26th, Saturday December 31st, and Monday January 2nd.

The New Berlin Library After School Science Program with 4-H/CCE takes place from 3:30-4:30 on the third Wednesday of every month during the school year in the New Berlin Library Community Room. The next scheduled program is December 21.
