Charitable Collections

​

As a community service, the library makes a limited amount of floor space available for use by nonprofit community groups collecting supplies for charitable purposes. Nonprofit community groups are defined and limited to "those groups which are located within or have their principle business address within the Borough of Waldwick." No monetary collections, transactions, or activities save for those directly benefiting the Waldwick Public Library will be permitted on library premises.
