I tend to take a lot of books out of our public libraries, but this isn't my favorite location of the three we have in town.

It's ok, it's convenient for this part of town, but I tend of go to the main branch-just easier to get to, better parking, and obviously a greater selection.

The library itself seems very old and in need of some cleaning. Also, the crowd that hangs out here…read moreis very odd, so I wouldn't recommend going here to study or to use the computers. Just grab what you need and get out. The staff is always helpful and fast. The non-fiction selection and new releases are limited, so I'm usually just here to pick up an order I placed through the Bergen County Cooperative Library System. There's also usually plenty of street parking out front.

If you like browsing around, there are probably better, more well stocked, newer libraries (like Montclair) but since the libraries are so interconnected, it's really easy to request what you want and come to receive when notified. I do think the parking can be annoying because it's either meter or wait until after 6 when the meters are free. This is unusual in my experience to not have free parking at a library, so it is a knock against it, but overall I like this place so I lean more towards a 4.

Learning to read and getting little toys as rewards is DEFINITELY a good idea. You're probably not surprised that I started reading with a quickness. So as you can see, I've had a relationship with the East Hanover Public Library for over 20 years. It's improved a lot, especially with the relatively recent renovations. But as much as I love the EHPL, it is definitely a small town library. In high school, I couldn't really find as much of the research material as I needed and had to go to county. However, the children's selection and young adult selection are great. Also, if you're into the newest/latest fiction/non-fiction, you can definitely find that stuff here. And for your convenience, they have wireless is available as well as a slew of computers for you to use. The librarians here are wonderful. Mrs. "S", the children's librarian is amazing. I never found out what her real name was.. but I assume her last name is too long for young children to pronounce. The programs they have are awesome. Book groups, story hour, crafts groups, etc. Also, cheapest video/dvd rental in town! Half or 1/3 of Blockbuster's prices. And if you want to get in touch with Santa, they have a mailbox around the holiday season. And he always responded. ;) 4.5 stars because of the need for a greater research area.

Some points that stood out: a 3D printer; showcase exhibiting an artist's work (with option to purchase); and ability to borrow a telescope. Unsure if there is a monthly theme, but there was a display of books near the front which seemed to be related to "space" or the "universe". The library seems to share the same building with the municipal building. No self-checkout machine. Felt a bit hassled about not having an updated sticker on the library card. Parking lot had a decent amount of spots. Recall that for the 2017 solar eclipse, the library was giving out the special glasses for residents.

My dad did the same thing too, and this was the first library that I've ever been to in my life. Now let's move on to the present. Recently, my dad and I came here to check out the book sale. For this, we had to go to the Book Cellar, which was in a separate entrance on the side of the building. There, we saw a lot of old books that were for sale at really cheap prices. Usually, we end up buying something here, but in the end, we bought nothing. Another reason why we came here was to pick up some tax forms. The other libraries in my area ran out of them, and we were told that we had to print them online. Tax season is stressful enough (unless you're getting a refund), but we don't need to add to the stress by printing online with our own, expensive ink and paper. Thankfully, this library had a lot of tax forms in stock. So we grabbed what was necessary for the submission of our tax returns. In order to get to the book cellar, you have to utilize the separate entrance in order to go down stairs. If you want to go into the main library from there, you have to exit the building and head to the front of the building to enter. Unfortunately, there's no way to enter the main building without going outside. But, if you want to buy a good old book, or borrow a new one, or pick up some tax forms, then you have to do what must be done. Overall, I'm a fan.

The Cranford Public Library has, by far, the most eclectic and interesting collection of blues,…read morerock, folk, country, and popular music CD's I have found in any of the dozen-or-so local community libraries that I have checked out in this part of NJ. It participates in the MURAL program, so residents of 40 different neighboring communities can register here for free borrowing privileges. Non-Cranford residents can borrow six CD's at a time for up to 2 weeks each. They also have a decent DVD collection, and, unlike other area libararies who charge a fee, DVD borrowing here is free. Their CD collection includes some real gems, by great, obscure artists, including Blind Willie Johnson, Bob Wills & His Texas Playboys, Little Willie John, The Mississippi Sheiks, Rev. Gary Davis, and Tim Hardin. Also, rather than just a smattering of random albums by more well-known acts, you will find relatively comprehensive catalogs by Aretha Franklin, Otis Redding, the Beatles, the Stones, The Band, Dylan, Springsteen, Van Morrison, Elton John, Tom Petty, Zeppelin, Santana, Talking Heads, Elvis Costello, etc, etc. Besides my own musical likes, they also have plenty of jazz, opera, classical, and international music CD's. The library also runs many events and programs including a film series, free live concerts, educational seminars, and several book sales each year.
