Book Club
Our book club meets the fourth Thursday of the month at 7pm in the library unless otherwise noted. We read and discuss fiction, non-fiction, bestsellers, and classics depending on the tastes of the members. Come and fellowship with friends and discuss the book each month.
PALS
The Princeton Area Library Supporters believe that all people should have access to quality literature; therefore, we are committed and in support of our public library for all citizens of Princeton and its surrounding area.
Free Little Library
Our Free Little Library is conveniently located in the library lobby. Thanks to the generous book donations from our community, there are many books for all readers, especially children’s books. There is also a shelf of board books and paper back picture books for the youngest bibliiphile in your life.
Community Cupboard
With community support and donations we are able to provide pantry items and toiletries to area families. The Community Cupboard is located in the library lobby, right inside the door.
A local crochet ministry made scarves and hats to donate for the winter. The Community Cupboard is available any time the library is open for donating or receiving goods. We are thankful to have a space indoors for this community service.
