There are many ways to support the Bernardsville Library Foundation.

Donations to the Endowment are carefully invested to ensure that library operations will be supported for generations to come. With your generous support, we have doubled the size of the Endowment for the Bernardsville Public Library since 2022. 

Donations to the Annual Appeal go into our General Fund which helps support current library operations. Since 2011,  the Foundation has granted $800,000 to the Bernardsville Public Library to close the gap between public funding and actual library operations.
 

Library Giving Day is a national day of fundraising for libraries and library foundations across the country. This year's Library Giving Day will be held on Tuesday, April 1, 2025. We hope to raise $25,000 that day to help close the 2025 gap in municipal funding and to support the Bernardsville Public Library 2025 operational budget.  

Planned Giving, also known as Legacy Giving, is a way to secure the future of the Bernardsville Public Library by supporting this institution in your estate planning.
