The mission of the Dunellen Public Library is to provide and promote open access to reading, cultural, intellectual, and informational resources that will enrich and enlighten all segments of our community. The Library’s Board and Staff believe that:

• Reading and study are important responsibilities of citizenship, essential to individual growth and enrichment, and are among the most enjoyable forms of recreation.
• Free and reliable access to information and cultural resources is a right of citizenship in a democracy and fundamental to the preservation of democracy.
