Every year from mid-November to mid-December, the
Camden County Library System collects books for the county’s
disadvantaged children as part of its annual “Books for Kids”
campaign. During this book drive, the library system accepts new and like-new
children’s books from the infant to young adult age ranges in a
separate bin from the regular book donations.
Patrons may bring books to the library system’s branches in
Voorhees, Bellmawr, Gloucester Township, Haddon Township, Merchantville and South
County (in Atco).
The
donated books go to the Camden County Division of Children’s
Services, which distributes them to needy children in the county in
time for them to enjoy over the holiday season. The
number of books we collect is always matched by a greater number of
smiles from book recipients. Please remember to donate
new books for kids at the end of the year!
