Join Norwood Library’s Adult Book Club for a discussion of our latest selection "No Time Like The Future: An Optimist Considers Mortality" by Michael J. Fox. For Adults

Michael J. Fox shares his personal stories and observations about illness and health, aging, the strength of family and friends, and how perceptions about time affect the consideration of mortality.  Running through the narrative is the drama of the medical madness the actor recently experienced: his Parkinson's disease and a spinal cord issue.  Fox describes how his challenge to learn how to walk again nearly caused him to ditch his trademark optimism.

About the branch

The original Norwood Library opened on November 22, 1950 as a storefront library at 4772 Peck Road. The library was opened to provide service to residents of the unincorporated area north of the city of El Monte.

The city annexed this area in the early 1960's. Property for a larger site was purchased in 1967. Finally, on April 15, 1977, the new Norwood Library opened at this address.

The library has an active Friends of the Library which strongly supports library programs and services.
