South Plainfield Public Library Home Page

The library is partnering again with South Plainfield's Social Services Department to help our community! We've set up an Angel Tree with ornaments representing local families in need. If you'd like to help please stop by the library to choose an ornament and register as a gift-giving 'Angel'. Gifts should be new and unwrapped, and brought in to the library by Thursday, December 15th. Questions? Give us a call at (908) 754-7885. Thank you!
