Due to the expected inclement weather, the library will open at 11 a.m. tomorrow. Stay safe, everyone.

In light of the approaching snowstorm, the library will be closed today. Stay safe, everyone.

Every time I go to a public library I begin to believe again that we can create amazing things that are just there for all to enjoy and use for free.

The Friends and Foundation of PPL are looking forward to welcoming @thebrookeshields.bsky.social back to Princeton on Jan. 15 for the launch of "Brooke Shields is Not Allowed to Get Old" published by @flatironbooks.bsky.social Details and tickets here: princetonlibrary.libnet.info/event/12566809

Calling area artists of all ages! The entry form for the Princeton Environmental Film Festival's upcoming exhibit in April is now open. We have three age categories and are accepting all types of art. Full details at this link: princetonlibrary.org/events/peff/...

To allow sufficient time for our employees to arrive under anticipated snowy conditions, the library will open at noon today. Thank you for your patience.

One of our favorite days of the year - the annual "Books We Love" interactive list from @npr.org is out! Wonderful to see some of the authors we hosted on the list, such as Varun Gauri, Adelle Waldman, Eliza Griswold and Amy Tan <@amytan.bsky.social> apps.npr.org/best-books/#...

Tickets are now on sale for the Jan. 12 book brunch with Lisa Gardner. A copy of the book + coffee/tea and pastries are included in the ticket. Gather your friends and join us at our first author event of the new year. cc: @hachettelibrary.bsky.social princetonlibrary.libnet.info/event/12296732

We could not agree more! Take this past Sunday: Our 1st floor had dozens of people reading in comfortable chairs and others working together on jigsaws or played chess at our games table while our second floor quiet workspaces were filled to capacity and our kids/teens area was off-the-charts busy.

Who's ready for 2025? We are, with some amazing author events just announced. We start the year off with a book brunch featuring Lisa Gardner in conversation with Amy Jo Burns on Jan. 12 -Registration opens 11/22! Thank you @hachettelibrary.bsky.social princetonlibrary.libnet.info/event/122967...
