Metuchen Borough Public Library

Friendly workers who always assist you with any library related issues. Very helpful in obtaining books from other libraries, even out of state.

I live in the neighborhood and go to this library often. All staff are helpful and courteous. However Zachary is the best. He is very knowledgeable is all areas of computer. He is always willing to help and spend as much time with one as needed.He Very patient and can multiple task with more than one person who needs his assistance. I am always happy to see him working there on the day i come in to the library. I don't always require his help, but gives me a piece of mind if I do. Thank you Zachary for all you do!!!

It's a great library with a friendly staff. It's not big, but there's a little bit of everything: books, DVDs, and magazines. There are 3 main sections: children's area upstairs, young adults, and adults on the first floor. The restrooms are behind the service desk. There's an elevator and a large multipurpose room where they organize receptions, art displays, meetings, movies, shows, concerts, and much more. It is a vibrant and active library with several opportunities for everyone to engage in different types of activities (educational, artistic, financial, mental health) from babies to adults. It is a wonderful place where to discover your community and yourself.

Nice library, and friendly staff, but the children's area needs a serious makeover. Ceiling paint is peeling and the fixtures are very worn. Update: they have built what is a very impressive graphic novel section. Most are full sets, or at least good runs with no missing volumes.

Ridiculous library. My largest gripe is the parking. Always an issue. For such "brainy" town, amazing they do not address this. The brainy town is not real brainy, just a bunch of annoying yuppies. With so many brains, maybe they should focus on education versus doing things to raise our taxes all the time. The other gripe is the time in transit to get selections from other libraries. My old library in Somerset County was the next day if selected before noon. Here it is a week plus to get a book from a library 3 miles away in another town. Really, what happened to having a daily run between all libraries. Again, not so brainy.
