Donations may be left at the Friends Donation Material Drop any time the Library is open. DO NOT deposit donations in the Library’s Book Return bins.

For donations of more than 30 items, or, if assistance is needed for drop-off, contact Friends at 973-992-4600 x505 in advance to make arrangements based on the availability of volunteers and/or staff.

Friends is not able to sell, re-donate, or re-direct certain materials. For those items we are unable to accept and respectfully request that you arrange for the private disposal. Disposing of these items increases our recycling costs, and absorbs limited volunteer time. If you have questions about this policy, please contact Friends at 973-994-4600 x505 or email at friends.liv.library@gmail.com.
