Friends of the Hackettstown Library

Friends of the Hackettstown Library The Friends organization, created in September 2002, is a nonprofit and charitable 501(c)3 corporation.

To advocate for the Hackettstown Free Public Library, working to gain public support for the library and aiding in the funding of programs, learning materials, and educational opportunities. Our mission is dedication to lending support to the Board of Trustees of the library and their ongoing endeavors to provide high quality library services and materials to the community. We have underwritten ma

ny programs and activities that are outside of the normal, day to day budget of the Hackettstown Free Public Library. We are especially proud of having paid for the circulation computer in the children's room when the downstairs was refurbished many years ago.
