Vinyl Records
Thank you for visiting out page! We hope that this inspires you to discover or rediscover the unique and high fidelity sound of a vinyl record.
On April 15, 2017, vinyl record albums spun their way back to the borrowing shelves at the Nutley Public Library, for the first time in over 25 years. On January 2, 2018 to ring in the new year, we introduced portable turntables to borrow.
Collection
Vinyl Records:
We have an eclectic mix of nearly 100 vinyl records to borrow. Our most popular albums borrowed are by Adele, Johnny Cash, and the Beatles.
Turntables:
Don’t have a turntable? Don’t worry. We have 3 all in one turntables available to borrow with Bluetooth. Check out a few albums alongside a turntable to discover or rediscover the sound of a vinyl record album.
