We're kicking off National Library Week 2025 by taking part in Right to Read Day, an annual event dedicated to raising awareness and taking action to protect the freedom to read and access books without censorship.

"The Great Gatsby," a frequently challenged or banned book written in 1925, will be read in its entirety starting at 11 a.m. The centennial of the novel is being commemorated with a series of events in Princeton.

All are invited and encouraged to attend — individuals, groups, teachers and students and book clubs. Drop-in readers and listeners are welcome. Sign up for a time slot using this form or by calling the Reference Desk at (609) 924-9529, ext. 1220. We will contact you by April 1 to confirm your time slot.
