Newark Library Blog

Have you been by the Newark Library in the past two weeks? If not, we have a beautiful new addition to our decor. We recently unveiled our new statue of two children reading in the Children’s Area of the branch. It was donated to the Library by Cargill Salt, Citizens of Newark, City of Newark, The Newark Library League, The Newark Optimist Club, Rotary Club of Newark and private donors. It is designed so that children can sit on the bench alongside the bronze children and have their picture taken. We also have a beautiful picture of the Lake in Newark, curtesy of Al Nagy, which makes the statue feel as if it is sitting outside in the summertime.
