Coffee and tea will be served during the talk at 11:30am. After the event there would be additional opportunities to discuss and comment.

I consider Princeton Library one of the great assets of this town contributing greatly to the quality of life of Princeton residents. When clients ask me why Princeton is a great place to live I site Public Library as one of such reasons for me.
