The Johanna W. Westergard Library, the branch library of Piscataway Township opened in 1981. Formerly it was known as the New Market Branch Library and was located in several locations in the New Market area of Piscataway. The Library was named in honor of Mrs. Johanna W. Westergard, an ardent supporter of library service. Mrs. Westergard was appointed to the Library Board of Trustees in 1943 and served continuously through 1983 as a valued trustee.

The Westergard Library circulates book cassettes, CDs and videos. Special collections include the World Language Collections and the Parenting Collection.

Westergard Library has computer terminals with online catalogs for convenient access to its print and non-print materials. The catalog can also be accessed via home Internet terminals. We also have word processing stations and Internet terminals in both the children's and the adult/young adult sections of the Library.

Westergard Library offers a meeting room to non-profit community organizations during library hours.
We also feature concerts, lectures, and other presentations throughout the year.  Check KIDS KAPERS, TEEN SCENE and ADULT HAPPENINGS, for current library programs.
