Library History
The Mount Olive Township Library Association was incorporated in 1976. In 1979, a major addition was added to the original octagon. In 1985, the township held a referendum on the municipalization of the Library. The vote was overwhelmingly in favor of municipalization. The Library officially became a municipal Library in 1986. In 1991, a second addition was added to include an administrative area and the periodical/reading room. In January 2005 the residents of Mt. Olive entered the new library which was built on Flanders-Drakestown Rd.
