Books for Kids Donation Program at Warren Township Library


Donate a new book to the Warren Township Library's annual "Books for Kids" program through October 31. Just stop by the library and leave a book in the donation box at the Children's Services Desk.

These donations will be distributed to children and teens throughout New Jersey who would not otherwise have books of their own. In the past two years, the Warren Township Library has collected 330 books for kids.

Started in 1991, "Books for Kids" is a statewide program sponsored by the New Jersey Library Association's Children's Services section. This program's mission is that all children will be able to experience the joy of reading books of their very own. 

Each year, with the help of more than 200 libraries, including Warren Township Library, thousands of thousands of children from around the state are given the chance to own a book of their very own through this important program.

For more information, contact the library's Youth Service Department at (908) 754-5554 ext 23 or stop by the Youth Services desk.

Warren Township Library Holiday Charity Drives

The Warren Township Library is hosting various holiday drives this season to benefit different local charities for needy children.

As in prior years, the library has trees decorated with special paper ornaments that contain the wishes of children in need. The Angel Trees, to benefit the Salvation Army, contain the child's first name, age, clothing size and a wish list of toys. Just take an ornament, buy a gift and then bring that unwrapped item and the ornament to the Circulation Desk by Dec. 8.

Perhaps you have some slightly used toys that you would like to clear out before your kids get more gifts this holiday. The library also is accepting toys in good condition on behalf of St. Vincent DePaul's. These also can be dropped off at the Circulation Desk by Dec. 7 and will later be distributed to needy children in North Plainfield.

If books are more your thing, the library is collecting new books as part of the "Books for Kids" campaign. People can bring new books for infants through teens to the Children's Services Department of the library through December 8.

For more information, about the Angel Tree or use toy drive, contact the library's Circulation Desk at (908) 754-5554. For more information on the book drive, call the library's Youth Service Department at (908) 754-5554 ext 23 or stop by the Youth Services desk.
