Children Reading Area

The Mount Arlington Public Library has dedicated the children’s reading area to former Mayor, Mary Johanna LoPonte.  Johanna was a lifelong educator and public servant who worked passionately to improve this town and create a modern community which included the building of a new library.

It is appropriate that the children’s reading area be dedicated in her name as it is a living memorial to her memory in bringing education and literacy to the community.
