Great news! Our Bridgewater-Raritan High School Yearbook Collection is becoming available digitally through our Community Memories Digital Archive! Thanks to a generous donation from the School District, our Bridgewater branch added a collection of yearbooks spanning more than fifty years to their local history collection. Our Technical Services team has been uploading these books to our digital archive. The 1962 - 1970 editions are currently available for viewing in our Bridgewater branch anthology with more editions to follow!

Our Community Memories Digital Archive on Bibilioboard provides our patrons the chance to explore and contribute to their community’s history anywhere from their own device. Explore these yearbooks and more located in our archive, link in our bio.

Last week our Warren Township branch officially opened their new Cozy Cove Sensory Room in their popular Children’s Play Area!

This newly renovated room provides patrons with a reservable sensory area where they can step away from the action and find space for quiet moments. The Cozy Cove’s design presents a calming atmosphere and features several interactive elements centered on an aquatic theme. A huge thank you to the Warren Library Advisory Board for sponsoring the project and the Warren Friends of the Library for providing supplementary funding. Stop by the library to explore and reserve the new room yourself!

Our SCLSNJ furry friend Daisy is making a return to the Bridgewater branch this week! Her journey with us began when she would visit our offices during her Seeing Eye puppy training. Daisy has now become a certified therapy dog and will be joining us for our Bridgewater branch’s upcoming “Therapy Dog Visit” this Thursday, October 22! Stop by the library from 3-4 p.m. to get a mid-day serotonin boost as Daisy and her handler make their way around the library. We can’t wait to welcome Daisy back!
