Franklin Lakes Public Library

Franklin Lakes Free Public Library has such a serene atmosphere. Before you even enter the building, one can't help but be drawn to the beautiful statues of children reading. The little girl reading a book while her pup looks to her with a curious expression on his face is magical! Inside the library there's a lot to explore and a book sale at ten cents a book! That's priceless when you think about how wonderful a good book can be. This was my first time visiting the Franklin Lakes Public library. I was there for a free concert of 60' and 70's rock music performed by The Kootz, a well known New Jersey band that always brings the fun! Glenn 'Kootz ' Taylor did a wonderful job of sharing some musical history with the happy audience. It was better than story time because it was more than one story in so many great songs! The staff were lovely, very friendly people and I'd like to thank them for welcoming me to their beautiful library. I have to go back to explore, it's so big I didn't get many pictures but I had a terrific time with people who all had happy faces and tapping feat! It was wonderful! You don't have to live in Franklin Lakes to visit, it's important to support all our local libraries, there's just no other place like them in the real world.. Thanks again to all the kind folks at the Franklin Lakes Free Public Library.

I have gone to the library with my 7 year old daughter multiple times. She is a book worm and the staff has the library well organized and they always take time to help her. Thank you Franklin Lakes library staff for helping foster her love for books and reading!

Beautiful, quiet and clean. Have loved our library over the decade we’ve lived here. The children’s programs were absolutely wonderful when my son was an infant and toddler. Now we just enjoy borrowing books for school or pleasure.

Great library. Friendly staff at the front desk. Beautiful library. Great collection and constantly updated. Also, some of the people who have left negative reviews have hardly set foot in the library, if at all. Go there yourself and make up your own mind. And don't believe all of the garbage you read! Highly recommend!

Nice place to read and just unwind with a good book.

My favorite library. The staff is always so kind and friendly. The library is quiet and easy to find empty tables or desks to study. A hidden gem.

Great library. Easy to request books from other libraries when they’re not in stock at this library. Helpful personnel.

The staff fis always pleasant, helpful, and quick.

i know someone who stole a nana vol 1 from this public library‍, yall needa up the security. I don’t want it to happen again

How many levels of disgusting do you have to be to kick out an autistic child. Absolutely ridiculous, should be ashamed of yourselves for treating a child like that. If I could give 0 stars I would.
