Reviews
"When you have time to relax what better way to do it then at the main branch of the Jersey City public library. Find a book that you will enjoy, find a seat at a table and take off on a soul refreshing date with history, art, sports or one of the many hero’s of their own biographies. An hour or two in the quiet of the library will refresh you and set you on a course for a successful work or school week. If you are one of those unfortunate over worked running on a treadmill cannot stop or I’ll drop people you might enjoy getting a library card. Then you can meet an audio book online; listen to it on your phone as you knock off those mindless task that litter a busy persons daily life. You can learn as you burn through those task. All free from your friendly neighborhood Jersey City Public Library. The main library has many places to accommodate a person looking for some quiet moments with their own thoughts. Enjoy."
