September is Library Card Sign-Up Month! Renew, replace, or sign up for a Westlake library card from September 1 – 30 and you'll get a chance to win a prize basket, plus access to all of our entertaining and informative resources.

WPPL is a Federal Depository Library

Westlake Porter Public Library is a Selective Federal depository library providing free public access to a Basic Collection of Federal government information from the Government Publishing Office (GPO). Check out these resources in print or digital.

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.
