Montclair Public Library serves the residents of Montclair Township in New Jersey, providing access to books, information services, and a broad array of educational programs. Founded in 1893 after a public vote as the Montclair Free Public Library, it has evolved into a community library that supports literacy and lifelong learning. It participates in the Bergen County Cooperative Library System, which links its collections and services with those of neighboring libraries. Located in Montclair, New Jersey, the library operates within the local municipal framework and is run by a staff to serve the public. In January 2026, the library launched a free early-literacy initiative called 1000 Books Before Kindergarten, aimed at encouraging families to read together. The library also runs ongoing programs such as summer reading clubs and community events, reflecting its role as a local educational and cultural resource within the Bergen County library network.
