"Whatever the cost of our libraries, the price is cheap compared to an ignorant nation."

-- Walter Cronkite

Who are the Friends? We are a group of local citizens brought together by a love of libraries. This organization is dedicated to generating increased awareness in the community of the extensive resources of our facility and to support the Library in all its endeavors. We plan to achieve this goal through membership dues, volunteer services to the Library, and fund raising activities to augment the Township's budget allocation.

All persons interested in the services provided by the West Caldwell Public Library and the purposes of our organization are eligible for membership in the Friends. Membership is obtained by the payment of annual dues, renewable in January of each year. Members are encouraged to participate actively in the committees of the organization.
