We now have wireless Internet access!

Johnson Public Library opened on October 5, 1901. The library was a gift from Mr. William M. Johnson, a state senator who donated land and funded the library's construction. We have served the Hackensack community for over one hundred years.

The Johnson Public Library has completed its historical design and renovation project of the front facade. You can be part of this exciting time in our library's history by purchasing a paver to add to the library's distinguished entrance.
