Happy Thanksgiving
The Library will close at 5 pm on Wednesday, November 25 and will be closed all day on Thursday, November 26th.
We will reopen on Friday, November 27th at 10 am.

Hats Off!
The Gates Avenue Knitters are once again selling their fantastic knitted hats to support the Friends of the Library.
At $5.00 each, maybe you will want to buy one for each of your relatives!
Come pick out your very own unique knitted winter hat from our stash at the front desk,
and be sure to admire the Gates Avenue Knitters' fabulous display of knitted items in our display cases in November!
In honor of our crafty friends, our book display this month features books on crafts, cooking and knitting.

Paws for Reading at the Library
For kids age 6 and up, first Wednesday of the month: sign your child up for a spot today at the library, or call 908-64702088 ext 2.

Become a Library Champion!
Long Hill Township Library invites you to become a Library Champion. Library champions love the library, feel strongly that the library is an important part of the community, and want to be in the know about issues that affect the library. Library champions receive email updates about library issues on a quarterly basis, as well as email alerts when issues arise that affect the library. To become a library champion, you can stop by the library and fill out a Library Champion form, download it, or just send email to director@longhilllibrary.org with your name, email address, street address and "Library Champion" in the subject line. Your support is greatly appreciated!

Book Donations
We appreciate your donated books! We will gratefully accept gently used books and magazines (please, no damaged books, textbooks, old medical books or encyclopedias, and only magazines published within the last year). Please drop your donation off at the circulation desk during library hours. We have limited space to store donated items, so we request that you bring no more than three bags of donations at a time.
Upon request we will be happy to provide a receipt for your donation (but we are not permitted to place a dollar value on it). Thank you very much!

We now have compact discs in a wide variety of genres, available for two-week loan. Stop by and browse!
