The Library is now open
Wanderlust has been transformed and is now part of NoRa. The space, while part of NoRa, has been rebranded as The Library at NoRa.
The Library now provides extra tables and comfortable seating for NoRa. The books are still in the space. We will be putting books throughout all of NoRa with the initial batches on display on the blue bookshelves in the main cafe. The price of books has been reduced to $3 a book (except for Blind Date books which are $10). The Library is open seven days a week and books can be bought at any time at the NoRa counter.
