"I thought if reading could bring so much happiness, joy and comfort to just one child, how much could it bring to multiple children?
It was then that I decided to create First Library®."
Catherine Tinger Goldberg
Founder
First Library was the first and one-time largest affiliate of the Free Book Gifting program in New Jersey for over ten years and served sixteen counties during its tenure as its affiliate.
First Library previously offered this program as part of its overall program and is now independent of it.
