Greetings!
October gives us many reasons to reflect, learn, and come together as a community. This month we are proud to celebrate Italian American Heritage Month, honoring the contributions of Italian Americans to our nation’s history and culture. Here in Hoboken, those ties run deep, from the city’s early immigrant roots to today’s vibrant community that continues to shape our neighborhoods, traditions, and stories.
It is also Banned Books Week, a time to stand together in support of the freedom to read. At Hoboken Public Library, we believe that every reader deserves access to the full spectrum of ideas and voices. We invite you to explore our Banned Books displays and join us in celebrating the power of literature to challenge, inspire, and connect us.
Finally, our Let’s Get Civic! series continues this month with important opportunities to hear directly from local candidates. These forums give Hoboken residents the chance to ask questions, listen to ideas, and make informed choices about our shared future. I encourage you to attend, participate, and let your voice be heard.
From honoring our past to shaping our future, October at the Library is about celebrating community in every sense of the word. We look forward to seeing you here.
Regards,
Jennie Pu
Library Director
