I love going to the libraries esp. Newark Public Library because I love meeting the staff there & even also I volunteer during the 3 years during the summer of 2012. What more could you ask for? Even I love going to some branches. I love reading a lot of books but most of all I love African-American fiction that’s all I can ask for?

I think libraries are important and should be supported. The New York public library because of lack of funding has limited hours but how’s many important books, encyclopedias, A great reference section, and offers CDs and videos for rental. Be careful of visiting the restrooms because many homeless like to hang out there.

Such a gorgeous library decorated with snapshots of history displayed on the walls in form of memorabilia from the times students in Newark lined up at a library truck to eagerly take out books to read. Beautiful. Like a museum of Literacy. Makes my heart melt.
As a teacher I’m amazed by libraries, especially those individuals who dedicate themselves to helping, donating, and fixing the library. But I am especially fascinated by children eager for knowledge, and the Newark Public Library (NPL) does just that.
Several floors of books and studying space, including conference rooms, and grand staircases winding as soon as you walk past the front desk.
I love this place. Conveniently located next to the light rail, with ample bike parking for bikers like me! Pretty great spot. Support the Newark public library!

Very small library, not up to date technology but what do you expect from a low class neighborhood? Only had 12 computers with nothing but kids on Facebook with no time limit, they’re open and close times are not accurate. Someone start a fund got this libraries makeover.
One staff guy was rude, on his own phone I thought he was a kid pretending to be in charge.

Oh my goodness. The beauty of this building is completely worth the trip to Newark. Fantastic Children’s Room and public programs as well. Close to many stops on the Newark Light Rail and within safe walking distance of Newark Broad Street station.
