Upper Shores Branch Ocean County Library

The Bay Head Reading Center, part of the Ocean County Library system, has a rich history dating back to its early days in a one-room town hall and later as a standalone library in a trailer. Officially joining the Ocean County Library system in 1991, it served as a limited service reading center until its closure in June 2023 to make way for a new preschool center. Following its closure, the Bay Head Express opened on the second floor of the new Bay Head Town Hall in July 2023, providing essential library services such as material drop-off and pick-up, library card issuance, and a small collection of popular books and media for immediate checkout. The library continues to play a vital role in fostering community engagement and lifelong learning. Generated from the website
