The Atlantic County Library System has done it again by sweeping the Best Branch Library category in the 2023 annual Best of the Press Reader's Choice Award for the second consecutive year in a row.

Congratulations to our Galloway Township, Ventnor, and Mays Landing branches and thank you to the patrons who voted for us as well as to the staff who have helped make it possible. We think all of our branches are winners!
