In 2011 the Foundation underwrote 11 programs and services. Your support is greatly appreciated. Join the MCLF for as little as $15 or donate a book ($25) to the library in honor of friends or family (Tribute Fund). MCLF exists "to support and enhance the activities and programs of the Morris County Library." Its objectives are

1. Raise funds for the purchase of library materials, support of children's services, and adult literacy.
2. Support educational and promotional activities developed by the Morris County Library Foundation.
3. Support special projects.

It is through Foundation generosity that the County Library has

• installed two Internet stations, with software for the low-visioned, for our disabled patrons
• offered, over the years
  • exciting live performances for children--singers, plays, a magician, The Lizard Guys and the Musical Chairs Ensemble
  • professional music concerts, the NJ Symphony Orchestra presents Mozart, classical Indian music (sitar and tabla), a program of Broadway songs, Sospiro Winds, the NJ Jazz Society and HerStory, the Moonlight Duo
  • hosted Paws for Reading, in conjuction with St. Hubert's.
  • theater and speakers in 2011 included: Cerealism, an art workshop with Michael Albert; Traveling Stage Co., living biography and Gateways to History, with Gordon Ward & Dr. Jude Pfister
• purchased large type books, display units for our LP collection (5,000 records), aphasia recovery software and equipment to record local school music concerts at the library

Other major donors include BASF and the Brandeis Women's Club. We thank them.

Donations to the Library Foundation are tax deductible and eligible for company matching fund programs.

The nonprofit foundation is a legacy for the future. It supplements taxpayer support of the library by attracting private funding and endowments that make the difference between a "good" and a "great" library for our county. A first-rate library encourages settlement by business and individuals, it supports educational efforts, it leads to a better informed public and a better quality of life.
