Friends of Wood-Ridge Memorial Library Selling Library Note Cards

Years ago as a fundraiser the Friends of Wood-Ridge Memorial Library had note cards designed that depicted the historic Library. They were very popular, and there has been a recent surge of interest in the history of the Library building.

The Friends now have for sale newly designed note cards with an updated picture of the Library. The Library is selling these cards on behalf of the Friends at the Front Desk of the Library. Each pack is only $5 with five cards and envelopes to a pack.

Please come and support the Friends in their work that benefits the programs and collections at the Library and impress your family and friends with your good taste in stationery.
