Once again this year during the holiday season, Bernardsville Library is collecting new books for infants through teens for distribution to children who have limited access to books. Members of the community are invited to bring a new, unwrapped book (or books) to the library by Sunday, December 15. These will be given to children at the Martin Luther King Youth Center in Bridgewater and Safe+Sound Somerset, formerly called the Resource Center for Women.
“Community members have always been very generous with their book donations,” said Tammy Shaw, Youth Services Manager at Bernardsville Library. “We know the children look forward to receiving the books each year, and for some children this may be the only book in their personal library. All the book donations are gratefully accepted.”
