CHANGING LIVES EVERY DAY

2010 REPORT TO THE COMMUNITY

PRINCETON PUBLIC LIBRARY

VOICES OF THE LIBRARY “Working as a volunteer on the Friends Book Sale Committee has allowed me to make use of my professional experience in publishing and to indulge my love of books.

When I started, the new store had been open only a few months. Sherri Garber and Eve Niedergang welcomed ideas for its organization and development, and I had a chance to be involved. Since those early days, it’s been wonderful to watch the book store grow and prosper.”

— Darryl Kestler Friends of the Library

TO THE COMMUNITY

2010

was a time of reflection as the community gathered to celebrate the library’s 100th birthday.

Throughout these pages you will find photos and testimonials that demonstrate just how important the library is to our community.

Thank you to all of you who contributed, in ways both large and small, to the success of our centennial celebration and endowment challenge. We are well positioned for the next 100 years of service.

But that does beg the question: What will public libraries be like in the coming decade?

Here at Princeton Public Library, we are thinking about the future we want to create, a future that keeps the community’s needs front and center and accommodates the changing way in which people find and use information and consume content. In 2010, we created a strategic plan, with help from

the community, to guide our work. In 2011, we will continue to explore new ways to deliver what you want, whether that is a book, DVD, CD, e-book, online service, class, program or one-on-one interaction with our staff. While we may not be certain about what the future will bring, we are confident that we will continue to innovate, adapt, change and grow to remain relevant and essential to your lives for years to come.

If you haven’t visited the library recently, either in person or at princetonlibrary.org, please be sure to rediscover all that we have to offer. We’re here, ready to change lives every day.

Leslie Burger Executive Director

2010 HIGHLIGHTS

Centennial Weekend

T

he library marked its 100th birthday with a weekend of celebrations that exceeded all expectations. Starting with a gala fundraising party at which National Public Radio personality Terry Gross was the keynote speaker, the commemoration continued with an all-day birthday party on Oct. 10 (10.10.10) open to the community. Party events took place both inside the building and in a tent on the outdoor plaza. Musical appearances by local ensembles, a 5K run, and additional activities culminated with the cutting of an elaborately decorated birthday cake created by the winner of a contest among local bakeries. The day was capped off by the presentation of a check payable to the Princeton Community for $10 million representing the culmination of the Centennial Campaign for Endowment.

Pi Day

Farmers Market

On March 14, Princeton joined the worldwide observance of Pi Day, marking the 131st birthday of Albert Einstein. The library was home base for the events of the day, which commemorated Pi, the most revered mathematical constant in the known universe. Scientists from the famed Princeton Plasma Physics Lab conducted interactive demonstrations in the Community Room. A piebaking contest was judged at Dispensa, the library’s café.

Einstein-themed walking tours began at the library. The event was so popular that an entire weekend of Pi events was planned for 2011.

Hinds Plaza was a popular destination on spring, summer and fall Thursdays during 2010. Local farmers and specialty food purveyors brought their homegrown produce, flowers, and other unique products to stalls set up just outside the library’s doors. Princeton Farmers’ Market, presented through a partnership between the library, the Borough of Princeton and local merchants, drew record crowds to the plaza. Live music and café seating added to the festive atmosphere. Special market-day activities and family events were offered, including cooking classes by a prominent local chef, who used products from each week’s market as ingredients.

VOICES OF THE LIBRARY Dear Leslie, I took advantage of the lovely white snow day to put together my notes for the Womanspace 2010 Community of Lights. The wind that came up just as we were lighting increased the challenge, but the library did it again.

Thank you so much for what you and your dedicated team did. When I came by after 5 p.m., a very dedicated gentleman was still committed to lighting the fallen lights. To him and to all who joined in, please extend our warmest appreciation from everyone at Womanspace.

— Ingrid Reed Board of Directors, Womanspace

2010 HIGHLIGHTS

Game On This program, funded by a grant from Princeton Tour Company, invites teens and pre-teens to drop in after school on Fridays to play board games, video games, and more. The addition this year of a pingpong table added to the program’s popularity.

Partnerships

VOICES OF THE LIBRARY “I want to help make the library experience better for the next set of kids who come to use it; I think it would be really rewarding to know I helped change something to make it better for other kids.”

New to the library in 2010, the Princeton Symphony Soundtracks series gives a behind-the-scenes look into the workings of a symphony orchestra. Held in advance of performances at a “I would like to be a member of nearby concert hall by the Princeton Symphony Orchestra, these TAB because I adore the library and standing-room-only sessions have focused on specific themes, would like to support it in every way composers, and repertoire. At the opening program of the sepossible. I’ve grown up with it and it ries, PSO Music Director Rossen Milanov introduced audiences is like a second home.” to works to be performed during the season. The program is one — Teen Advisory Board members of several efforts by the library to collaborate with other cultural organizations in the local community, including the Princeton Senior Resource Center, Princeton University Press, Not In Our Town, the Princeton Recreation Department, Corner House, HiTOPS, Cotsen Children’s Library, Princeton Regional Schools and many others. Additionally, the library joined forces with the Arts Council of Princeton in presenting a Cinco de Mayo celebration and a community-wide Halloween parade.

Springboard

This award-winning program, which provides local students with free homework help through a grant from the Concordia Foundation, added two innovative programs in 2010. “Count Me In!” is a weeklong math camp for girls going into seventh, eighth and ninth grades. The girls learned how to use math to solve logic problems, why math matters in studies of the human body and other related topics, in a team setting. First presented in the summer, it was repeated by popular demand during the winter holidays. “The Epic and the Odyssey” prepared rising high school freshmen, who are required to read “The Odyssey,” with an in-depth exploration of the classic story using film, acting and music. The two-day program, taught by a local teacher was held twice, both times to packed audiences.

Museum Pass

A program that allows library cardholders to visit major museums in New York, Philadelphia and New Jersey, free of charge, Museum Pass was expanded in 2010 to include additional venues. Made available through funding from the National Endowment for the Humanities and Pierre Deux, the passes are reserved online or at the library’s Welcome Desk. Among the museums visited by cardholders this year are New York City’s American Folk Art Museum, Frick Collection, Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum, Museum of the City of New York, the Guggenheim Museum and the Children’s Museum of Manhattan; Philadelphia’s Academy of Natural Sciences and Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts; and New Jersey’s Garden State Discovery Museum and Montclair Art Museum.

FINANCIAL REPORTS

VOICES OF THE LIBRARY I was looking for a specific book, asked the reference librarian about it and in passing, I asked about the e-books.

She was delightful, asked if I had my iPad with me and suggested we set it up right then. So we did, and it has been a delightful experience to read my first online book. I so appreciated her time, patience and assistance. This is why our library is just so special. — Betsy Hoover Friends Council member

CONTRIBUTORS VOICES OF THE LIBRARY “Though I come for a film, I end up accidentally sitting through a preceding panel discussion or a follow-up talk that quite often carries more lasting impact. I think it’s because the live talk at the festival becomes quite energized, with the air so full of cinematic scenarios and statistical surprises and random ideas flying around the room. To me, the films at PEFF set the stage for a series of rich community exchanges and learning sessions that makes Princeton in January feel positively urban.”

VOICES OF THE LIBRARY “As a child you don’t realize the dedication and hard work librarians invest into programs and education until you’re mature and can realize that they were investing into your future rather than your present. I think that the Princeton Library gave me an opportunity to succeed in life and get ahead. Even though I was a problem at times and could have easily been banned from the library, the doors were always open to give me the hope and the chance I needed to excel in school. The librarians themselves went to the end of the world to help me and other students. I believe I use that same attitude when I teach my classes as a physical education teacher. If it weren’t for their love and patience I don’t know how I would have made it through high school.
