South Plainfield Public Library

South Plainfield Public Library The first priority of the South Plainfield Public Library is to ensure that the maximum number of South Plainfield residents use and enjoy the Library.

South Plainfield Public Library's mission is to provide informational, educational, leisure and cultural resources to every resident of South Plainfield, and to serve as a center for life-long learning and a place for community interaction. The Library is intended to be a vital, vibrant, and friendly part of the community. To achieve this, the Library features current, high demand and high interes

t materials in a variety of formats for persons of all ages. Emphasis is placed on stimulating young children’s interest and appreciation for reading and learning, and on continuing this support throughout each child’s school years. The Library also serves as a clearinghouse for obtaining timely, accurate, and useful information for community residents.

We were so thrilled to be named a recipient of grant funding from our friends at New Jersey Council for the Humanities so that we could bring the award winning national PRIME TIME FAMILY READING program to our community! We had such a great response from the participating families, and are so thankful to Gigi Naglak and her team at NJCH for all of their help implementing this very important series. We've heard our chances at funding in 2027 are pretty good, so keep your fingers crossed and your eyes open for the next session! 🤞📚📖🩷
