Join us for a special sensory-friendly hour at the library, held before public hours.

This dedicated time is designed to offer a quieter, calmer library experience for children, teens, and adults with sensory sensitivities, along with their families or guardians.

The library will be open only to registered participants during this hour, providing a safe, low-stimulation environment to browse, read, use the computers and explore before regular public hours begin.

Facilitated by TAG volunteer Myer, the Younger Writers Group is a monthly meeting space for aspiring authors of all genres - poetry, lyrics, fiction, nonfiction, short stories, and more! Attendees are encouraged to bring their writing implements of choice (e.g., pen and paper, laptop, etc.) as well as whatever writing project they've been working on recently.

All caregivers are welcome to attend this parent workshop from Central Jersey Family Health Consortium. This presentation-style educational session will cover tools and partnerships that support your child's development and learning. Whether you are navigating your child's "firsts" or looking for a way to make community connections, this event will help support you and your child's wellness.

Library staff will also be on hand to answer questions about what resources the library has to offer families.
