Check out a Hotspot at the Betsie Valley District Library!

Patrons may check out a Kajeet SmartSpot, a filtered Wi-Fi hotspot that enables you to connect your mobile devices (e.g. laptop, smartphones, tablets, etc.) to the Internet. The Kajeet SmartSpots allow the Library to provide cost-effective educational broadband service to under-served populations. Library patrons can check out a Wi-Fi hotspot to complete homework assignments, apply for jobs or conduct business even in areas not served by hardwired broadband connections.

We invite everyone into the Betsie Valley District Library to see two very beautiful art pieces, on loan from local artist Marie Wohadlo! The first piece is an abstract quilt of green fabric cones.
The second piece is a mosaic of glass beads, llll.still.llll, Marie's 2017 Grand Rapids ArtPrize entry, which won 2nd place in the 2D category. The spirit of nature shines through both art works. Come and experience them yourselves!
