The new structure highlights the most generous, one-time donations the library has received since the opening. Initially, the library opened the Americans with Disabilities Act compliant facility on Aug. 1, 2017. The upgrade was primarily funded through the generosity of the community. These donors are prominently displayed throughout the building. — Princeton Public Library board members (from left) Jerry Thompson, president Tony Bonucci, director Julie Wayland, Jan English, secretary Lani Swinford, Lauren Smith and son Eli pose next to the new donor recognition wall Thursday, Aug. 1, 2024, at the Princeton Public Library.
