View of WPPL's Makerspace

The Westlake Porter Public Library Makerspace is currently open for reservations only and with limited capacity. To make a reservation, please contact us or call the Makerspace at 440-871-2600 ext 2. A staff member will reach out to you to confirm your reservation.

With BingePass from hoopla Digital and your WPPL library card, you have unlimited access for 7 days to the service of your choice—hoopla Magazines, The Great Courses, Curiosity Stream or Hellosaurus—each with a single hoopla borrow.

Laminating

Try our Pouch Laminator for business cards, bookmarks, signs, flyers and more! Visit the Circulation desk to have your item laminated.

Pouch size Cost
2 X 3 ½ inches (business card) $0.25
8 ½ X 11 inches (letter size) $0.50
11 X 17 inches (ledger size) $1.00

Heat sensitive items—such as concert and movie tickets printed with thermal paper—are not suitable for lamination. Because laminating is permanent, collectible or valuable items are not recommended for lamination. Also, most official documents—such as Social Security cards—should not be laminated.

Test Proctoring

Exam iconThe Westlake Porter Public Library offers test proctoring free of charge during the hours the library is open. Computers are available for online-based tests and individual study rooms are available for paper tests.

Contact Adult Services with your name, contact information, and desired testing date and time. Scheduling is based upon staff availability. Please allow enough time for correspondence with your institution to receive testing materials and instructions.
