Greetings!

Welcome to the clear days of Fall! There is a lot going on at the library. This month the library will participate in Snapshot Day on Oct. 24- a day to emphasize the many ways that people use libraries. Barnes and Noble will demonstrate new tablets that day. Check out a Nook eBook reader while you visit. Read more about it below!

The Haddonfield Friends of the Library had the most successful book sale ever on Sept. 22 and 23. The Friends and library thank the many volunteers who made it a success, especially local girl scouts, boy scouts, National Honor Society students and their families, for pitching in at the sale! See slideshow here and below of the sale! A special thanks to the many people in Haddonfield who donated books and other items for the sale. 

Just a reminder - the library's online catalog is now available on your mobile device. It is much easier to use for reading on the go - check it out! 

Buntzie Ellis Churchill will give an informative lecture on Oct. 3 on Women and Islam. The adult book group has a new schedule- check it out! Teens can have fun on Oct. 24 making a Jar O Lantern at 6:30 pm. The children's dept. has brought back the popular Read to a Dog program on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Visit the children's dept. to make an appointment.     

Joe Murphy is placing a presidential memorabilia exhibit this month- stop in to see this fascinating exhibit this month.

 The Summer Reading Program was a great success. The final laser light show at Borough Hall in late August was attended by 146 children and their families. 

Children's Librarian Dorothy Peppard reports that 715 children and 19 teens participated in the summer reading programs with 480 children and 19 teens completing the programs. 81 children used their free book vouchers to get books at the Friends Book Sale. High School , Ritz and Cinemark tickets have been mailed out to those completing the programs.  

A special thanks to the Haddonfield Friends of the Library for paying all summer reading program costs! A good time was had by all. 

Quick Links:

 Vote 411 is a new tool the League of Women Voters provides to help people register to vote, and offers information on voting requirements and state deadlines.  The Vote 411  tool allows voters to build an online voter's guide, view political races, compare candidate positions side-by-side and print out "ballots" that can be used to remind the public to vote on Election Day. The tool also provides visitors with helpful voting information, candidate statements and details on current issues.  
 According to NJ State Law, our library has voter registration forms for the public.
