The Bernardsville Library Foundation Board of Trustees
 

• Who we are: The Bernardsville Library Foundation Board of Trustees is a group of Bernardsville citizens who love and support the Bernardsville Public Library, and who volunteer their time to raise funds for the Bernardsville Public Library. 

• When we meet: The Board of Trustees meet on the 2nd Tuesday of every month at 6:30 in the Bernardsville Library Quiet Room

• What we do: We have two purposes. First, we raise funds to close the annual municipal budget gap. Since 2011, the Foundation has granted the library more than $900,000 to close the annual gap in funding. Our second goal is to raise funds for the Bernardsville Library Foundation Endowment, which will support future library operations. With these two goals, the Foundation meets its Mission of providing private funding to support the Bernardsville Public Library, without regard to variations in municipal funding. Almost all the donations we receive, come from the patrons of the Bernardsville Library. 

• How we raise funds: 

  • Library Giving Day – the annual one-day online appeal

  • The Annual Appeal Newsletter

  • Small meetings with donors and potential donors
