📖 About Roxbury Public Library
The Roxbury Public Library traces its origins to 1959 when members of the Roxbury Woman's Club took on the establishment of a county library as a community improvement project. The Roxbury Public Library Association was formally incorporated on May 6, 1960, and the library opened its doors on February 20, 1961 in the former Steneck family home at 103 Main Street — the same address it occupies today. In November 1968, Roxbury Township voters chose to municipalize the library, placing it under public ownership. As a member of the Main Library Alliance, your free card unlocks 2.8 million items across the Morris County library network. Today the library serves six Roxbury communities — Succasunna, Ledgewood, Landing, Berkshire Valley, Port Morris, and Kenvil — and hosts a lively slate of events including the Steve Redan Memorial Author Series, ESL classes, yoga, a Spice Club, and the annual Olde Suckasunny Day and La Fiesta celebrations.
