The Crosswicks Library Company History
In 1817, the Crosswicks Library Company was officially incorporated
to serve the needs of the community of Chesterfield, New Jersey. The
library's home shifted constantly; it was moved from private home
to private home. The library's books were donated by businesses and
private citizens for the enjoyment of all. In 1931, the Union Fire
Company allowed the library to use the upper floor of the fire house
as the library's permanent location. By 1962 the library had outgrown
the Fire Company's second floor and had moved across the street to
the balcony of the Community Center. A final move was made back to
the old Fire House in 1968 (the library's present location) when the
fire company moved out and allowed the library to use the entire building.
Today, the library continues to serve its original purpose. Nestled
in the heart of the picturesque village of Crosswicks, the library
continues to serve the reading needs of the people of Chesterfield
Township.
