The Urban Libraries section met monthly during the 2015-16 year, although we followed a few traditions in which we stray from the monthly schedule as follows:
We will be meeting in the Assembly Room on the top floor of the Paterson Free Public Library at 10 am. Our topic for the day will be development of collections in languages other than English. Len LoPinto, from the Paramus Library, will be presenting on this topic.
In addition, we will review Assemblyman Wayne DeAngelo's bill which would require certain CATV companies to provide Internet service at public libraries with business customer class Internet access bandwidth and circuit capacity proportional to public libraries’ needs.
With the History and Preservation Section

Minutes NJLA Urban Library Section Meeting
December 19th 2013
Attendees:
The Urban Libraries Section of the New Jersey Library Association was established to address the needs of public libraries serving our state’s urban centers. As the demand for services in urban areas continues to grow, even as funding declines and operating difficulties proliferate, New Jersey’s urban libraries must articulate the challenges facing them.
