As a tribute to Earth Day, join the library for the first of a multi‑part series titled, 'Sustainability Steps'.  This series will focus on monthly topics to engage you in minimizing your carbon footprint.

Fundraiser: Help raise funds while improving our environment.

Bring your new or old, broken or working electronics to Woods Road School in Hillsborough on Saturday, April 26th from 9:00 AM - 1:00 PM. For a suggested donation of $3 to $5 or whatever you feel is appropriate, help keep harmful metals out of our landfills. Unlike last year, the recycling company is no longer paying the sponsors of electronic recycling drives, so the only funds raised will be from the donations collected. There will be people to unload your items. If you have questions, email Billy Bender at  WoodsRoadElectronicsRecycling@gmail.com.

Please consider supporting WRS and bring your items on April 26th (same day and location as the 1 pm clothing drive).

Hillsborough Clean-Up Day

Hillsborough Township will host the 5th Annual Clean Up Day on Saturday, April 26th from 9 am until 12 noon starting at the Municipal Building.  The Department of Public Works organizes it through a Clean Communities Grant. It’s an eye-opener when you see how much garbage is on the roadside.
