Greetings!
September is a time of energy and connection at Hoboken Public Library. We are especially proud to launch our Let’s Get Civic! series, a set of programs designed to connect our community with the tools and knowledge to fully participate in local democracy. From National Voter Registration Day on September 16 to forums with mayoral, council, and board of education candidates, these events are an invitation to learn, listen, and take part in shaping Hoboken’s future.
We are also looking forward to welcoming you to one of our biggest events of the year — the Hoboken Library Festival on Saturday, September 20. It will be a day filled with performances, story times, crafts, local authors, food, and community celebration across both the Main Library and Grand Street Branch.
And don’t forget to sign up for our Fall Reading Challenge: Axolotls Love Books. Readers ages 0–18 can track their minutes, unlock badges, and earn raffle tickets for prizes. This year, there’s an extra-special incentive: complete at least 200 minutes of reading by the day of the festival and you’ll earn a New York Red Bulls badge — plus a free ticket to an upcoming home game. It’s a fun way to connect reading, community, and the excitement of soccer.
Whether you’re joining us to get civic, to celebrate at the festival, or to read your way to Red Bulls rewards, we can’t wait to see you at the library this month.
Regards,
Jennie Pu
Library Director
