Welcome to the Mount Arlington Public Library website. We had a wonderful summer with many activities and programs, and are getting ready for a pleasant and colorful fall.
I really enjoyed the activity in our reading garden. The pollinators were busy making their rounds over the beautiful butterfly bushes. These hearty bushes require little attention, and can be enjoyed for their lovely blooms and resident yellow swallowtail butterflies and bumblebees. The garden is open to everyone, and I invite you to sit on a bench to read or just relax and enjoy the sun.
The word “library” seems to be less associated with the quiet brick-and-mortar buildings we all grew up with, and more easily defined as vibrant and interactive spaces.
While providing all the usual services, libraries have become purveyors of intellectual,
informative and social services with the mission of educating, informing, and entertaining a variety of audiences.
I encourage you to stop by and spend some time with us. Enjoy your day!
