History:

Located in Hasbrouck Heights, New Jersey, the original building to house the library was never intended as a library at all. When the group disbanded, the building and property were deeded to the Hasbrouck Hei

ghts Board of Education for the sum of $1, with the proviso that it be used for "educational purposes." Thus, in 1917, the Free Public Library of Hasbrouck Heights opened its doors. Housed in the same building on Division Avenue since 1917, the Library moved to its current home on the Boulevard and Central Avenue and officially opened the doors to its new facility in December of 2003.

Happening tomorrow night: a follow-up to 2023's Archive of Society presentation!

Wednesday, April 8, 2026 @ 6:00pm

Historians, to track changes in past climates, are increasingly learning how to read the evidence produced by both people and nature: the latter type of evidence is referred to as the Archive of Nature. This presentation focuses on nature with a basic explanation of how pollen, ice cores, and tree rings help scholars interpret the climate of past societies. Presented by Robert Ingoglia, Ph.D Adjunct Instructor of History at St. Thomas Aquinas College.
