A Story of Community and Growth

Imagine a young child sitting on the colorful carpet in our library, captivated by a storybook. A few years later, that same child returns, now a teenager, using our library’s resources to research a school project. Fast forward to adulthood, and this individual is now attending a workshop on career development or enjoying a quiet space to read a favorite novel.

This is the power of our library. It’s more than just a building—it’s a place where lives are shaped, dreams are nurtured, and a community comes together. For generations, the Alfred H. Baumann Free Public Library has been a cornerstone of Woodland Park, serving residents of all ages with resources, programs, and a welcoming environment.

However, to continue providing these vital services and to meet the growing needs of our community, we need to expand and modernize our facility. Thanks to overwhelming support from our community and the New Jersey Library Construction Bond Act, we have already raised a significant portion of the funds needed. But we’re not there yet.

We need your help to raise the final funding to complete our vision of a state-of-the-art library that will serve Woodland Park for generations to come. By investing in our library today, you’re investing in the future of our community.

Join us in making this vision a reality. Your support can help create a lasting legacy for Woodland Park and its residents. Together, we can build a brighter future.
