I want to make a monetary donation
Thank you for your generosity! The Wanaque Library Foundation, our 501(c)(3) organization, was established in 2020 for the specific purpose of raising funds for the library. These funds are used to expand services and materials to directly benefit the residents of Haskell and Wanaque. To donate, please drop off your donation or mail it to Wanaque Library Foundation, 616 Ringwood Avenue, Wanaque, NJ 07465. You may also donate directly to the Wanaque Library Foundation via Paypal.
Please email us at wanaquelibraryfoundation@gmail.com if you have any questions, or if your employer offers a matching gift program and you’d like to contribute.
I want to donate books, movies or music CDs
Thanks for thinking about us! We are a small library and not equipped to handle a large amount of book donations, so please contact us to find out whether we can currently accept donations. We are sorry, but we can’t accept old textbooks, encyclopedias, or books in poor condition. If you have a large amount of books to donate, a company called New Legacy Books has bright green donation dropboxes located across northern New Jersey. Their nearest locations are Christ Church in Pompton Lakes (400 Ramapo Avenue), Habitat for Humanity ReStore in Wayne (415 Hamburg Turnpike) and Elks Lodge in Oakland (33 Ramapo Valley Road). For more information about New Legacy’s mission or the location of their donation boxes, visit their website (newlegacybooks.com)
I want to volunteer or donate my time
Wanaque Library accepts volunteer applications from teens in grades 9 through 12. We are a small library, so unfortunately we can’t always accommodate all of the students who wish to volunteer. If you’re turning in your application during the school year and you don’t hear from us within a week, please check back with us in May. We usually have opportunities for teens to volunteer during the Summer Reading Program. Please download and fill out our Wanaque Library Volunteer Letter and Application to get started! Thank you for your interest.
I want to support the library another way
If you have an idea of another way you want to support or donate to the library, such as running a birthday fundraiser, designating the library foundation as a beneficiary in your will, sponsoring a bookmark, or purchasing a piece of furniture for the library, we’d love to talk with you about it. Please fill out the contact form below and we will get back to you.
