Princeton Public Library has received the 2015 Innovation Award from the New Jersey State Library Association for January’s popular how-to festival, “65 Things at 65 Witherspoon.” The daylong program, during which multiple, simultaneous demonstrations of a variety of skills and abilities took place throughout the library, was an opportunity for members of the community to share their talents with others.
Library executive director Leslie Burger and public programming librarian Janie Hermann accepted the award in April during the State Librarians Breakfast at the NJLA Annual Conference in Long Branch.
