Piscataway Public Library has many helpful resources for immigrants, including:
- Weekly English as second language (ESL) classes in the spring and fall (see more information below)
- Books, DVDs, and CDs for learning English
- Citizenship materials that help you study for the U.S. Naturalization test
- Books in world languages for adults and children
Piscataway Public Library offers free English as a second language (ESL) classes for adults learning English. The ESL classes are split into two 10-week semesters. The fall semester starts in September and ends in November. The spring semester starts in February and ends in April. Classes take place on weekdays in the afternoon or evening for one hour per week. Typically we have a few beginner level classes. Please note we prioritize Piscataway residents for these classes.
Registration for the spring semester will open in January. This webpage will be updated with the registration date in late December. Once registration opens, you must speak to the librarian Ruby at Kennedy Library (500 Hoes Lane, Piscataway) to sign up for classes so she can evaluate your English. You'll be able to see the class options here on our library calendar once registration opens. In the meantime, if you would like more information about the ESL Program, Ruby can be reached at esl@piscatawaylibrary.org.
