NN/LM Middle Atlantic Region is pleased to announce five new affiliate members to our region.

Cohocton Public Library (Cohocton, NY) is part of the Southern Tier Library System. The mission of the Cohocton Public Library is to enhance the quality of life in a small, rural community by providing access to cultural, educational, and recreational materials in various formats and for all ages.

Monroe Township Public Library (Monroe Township, NJ) is located in a sprawling, suburban/semi-rural community in the southernmost part of Middlesex County, NJ. Its significant demographic characteristic is the presence of two large distinct populations: young families with pre-school and school age children, and older adults, most of whom live in the six pre-retirement and retirement communities located in the Township. The library is already planning summer health information courses for their community.

Plattsburgh Public Library (Plattsburgh, NY) saw an increase in circulation of over 3.5% in just the past year. Their active friends group and events calendar keep the library as an active member of the community.

Micro Tech Training Center Library (Belleville, NJ) is a professional health care and security industry training institute supporting programs in massage therapy, surgical technicians, medical assistants and more.

Plainfield Public Library (Plainfield, NJ) just celebrated their first community health fair in May. The library hosted the NN/LM as an exhibitor at this weekend event that brought together community partners, health professionals, and members of the public.

Please join us in welcoming these libraries to our region!
