Our mission is to provide long-term stable support for the resources and services the library requires to meet the evolving educational, social, cultural, technological, and informational needs of the community.
Our library is much more then just a beautiful, historic building that holds over 86,000 books, 9,000 DVDs, 4,000 CDs and other media. It is a place for you to explore from around the corner to across the world. You and your family can use computers to surf the Internet, and borrow laptops, e-readers, and other electronic devices. You can download music files, visit a historical collection of books and photos featuring “Old Hoboken,” take computer courses, attend author “meet and greets,” enroll your children in learning programs and much,much more.
Your donation to the Hoboken Library Foundation helps to ensure a solid future for the Hoboken Public Library. Your gift becomes part of an endowment that is used to support the needs of future generations of library-goers in our community as well as to support current capital requirements for necessary library upkeep and improvements.
