The resolution designates the second week of September each year as Library Awareness Week in New Jersey, highlighting the essential role libraries play in promoting lifelong learning and ensuring public access to information. It emphasizes that libraries serve as community centers, offering various services such as reading rooms, tutoring, and programs for children, while also addressing the digital divide by providing internet access. The resolution acknowledges the dedication of library professionals in connecting users with necessary information and their contributions to the discourse on intellectual freedom and equitable access to resources.

To commemorate this week, the resolution requests the Governor to issue an annual proclamation recognizing Library Awareness Week and encourages public officials and residents to engage in activities that celebrate the importance of libraries and their staff in a democratic society. The resolution aims to foster public pride in New Jersey's libraries and promote awareness of their valuable resources and services.
