Saturday 10 am to 5 pm
Sunday - 1-5 pm

The Library will be closed on May 25-27, for Memorial Day as budget and holiday closing days.

The 3M Cloud eBook System is now available @ your Library!

The Haddonfield Public Library launched a new eBooks system on April 15 during National Library Week. The new system, called the 3M Cloud, is integrated into the library's online library catalog, POLARIS. The 3M Cloud is the first system that runs in POLARIS or through any other integrated library system. It is easy for borrowers to check out items, place requests, and check in - from the library or from home.

Thanks to the Haddonfield Friends of the Library, partners of the Library Board of Trustees in this effort, a Discovery Terminal is available at the library to introduce the system to the community. The kiosk presents an opportunity for those who have not used eBooks to try them. Two eBook readers are also available for loan for 2 weeks for those who do not have eBook readers.  Most people probably have devices that are compatible with the system. They can use it directly by visiting www.haddonfieldlibrary.org  A few easy steps and you will be borrowing eBooks from the 3M Cloud.  Your Haddonfield Library card must be current and in good standing to use the Cloud.  This system has more children's and teen books than have been available in the past through Overdrive. The library continues its participation in Overdrive for eBooks and downloadable audio books.  Consider taking a computer class at the library or drop in to learn how to use the Cloud from our reference librarians. Brochures are available at the public service desks.

Adult Author Program

On May 22 at 7 pm Haddonfield resident Joe Burcher and co-author Robert Kenselaar will discuss and sign copies of" Remembering South Cape May: the Jersey Shore Town that Vanished into the Sea" by History Press.  For all who love the Jersey Shore and Cape May in particular, this is a quaint history of the tiny town of South Cape May, long gone and now just a memory. Few would imagine that the land currently occupied by the Nature Conservancy's Cape May Migratory Bird Refuge, or "the Meadows," was once the picturesque Jersey Shore town of South Cape May. By the early twentieth century, a striking hotel and homes designed by renowned Victorian-era architects dotted the landscape. Residents and visitors alike spotted rumrunners racing across the beachfront during Prohibition and endured World War II with German submarines lurking just offshore. But by 1954, barely a trace of the town remained except for about twenty of the original houses, which were moved a mile away. Join one of the town's last residents, Joseph Burcher, as he chronicles life in South Cape May before the angry Atlantic swallowed this serene town. Mr. Burcher will autograph copies of the book after the discussion.

Adult Book Group Meets on May 20
"Turn the Page", Haddonfield Public Library's lively monthly book club, will meet at 7 pm on Monday evening May 20th  to discuss the novel The Great Gatsby.  Writtenby F. Scott Fitzgerald, reading the novel coincides with the release of a new film version of the celebrated book.  New members are always welcome! Please join us on the 20th; refreshments will be served. For more information about"Turn the Page" and for help obtaining a copy of this selection in advance of the meeting, please contact kmetrick@haddonfieldlibrary.org

On May 21 at 6:30 pm - Teen Craft Night - Mish Mash Crafts -create a cool craft for your own purpose. The library will have lots of craft materials  on hand so you can design your own craft. Come with ideas or drop in and make it on the spot. Have fun with local teens and Teen Coordinator Erica Braverman. Call 429-1304, ext. 114 to register.

The Haddonfield United Methodist Church, since its inception in 1829, has grown from a gathering of a few in the Grove Schoolhouse to a congregation of over 2000 in our fifth and present home at 29 Warwick Road. Our members come from 57 towns in South Jersey. We have survived an earthquake and several fires, yet after each disaster we emerge stronger than before. We are a big church with a small church friendliness. We sponsor activities for all ages and have dozens of ways of serving from missions, ministries, choirs, small group study, and more. Our new addition was completed in 2008 and has enabled us to expand our ministry with new classrooms for Christian education, a beautiful music suite and new reception and welcome center. In 2009 we celebrated more than 180 years of Christian fellowship and worshipping God in the Methodist tradition established by John Wesley over 250 years ago. Because we believe that one size doesn't fit all, HUMC provides four Worship Services each weekend.

• Saturdays at 5 p.m. in the chapel (casual service)
• Sundays at 8 a.m. in the chapel (traditional service)
• Sundays at 9 a.m. in the sanctuary (contemporary service)
• Sundays at 10:15 a.m. in the sanctuary (traditional service)

Haddonfield Auxiliary Police Officers are trained, non-paid volunteers, whose mission is to augment the Haddonfield Police Department. Their ranks include moms and dads, business owners and executives, and other Borough residents who are committed to making a safer community. In 2007 the Auxiliary Police were honored with the Alfred E. Driscoll Award for outstanding community service. Each year Auxiliary Officers provide almost 1,000 hours of volunteer service. They function as court bailiffs, and direct traffic at town events such as Fire Prevention Night and the Fall Festival. Members also provide crowd control at high school football and basketball games, numerous parades and 1st Night Celebration. Auxiliary Officers also carry out uniformed, foot and bicycle patrol in the business district during Candle Light Shopping; summer-time Friday night concerts; and furnish security for the summer Craft Fair. Auxiliary Officers are trained to respond to local emergencies, natural disasters and assist the Camden County Fire Police.

Meetings Open to the Public
Auxiliary members meet on the first Thursday of each month at 7:30PM in the Haddonfield Court Room. All Borough residents are invited to attend.

Training
Various training seminars are conducted by qualified members of the Haddonfield Police Department. Some officers take optional classes at the Camden County Police Academy. All officers are instructed in basic law enforcement protocol, radio communications, police vehicle operations, self defense, and baton and pepper spray tactics. Officers also remain current with their first-aid and CPR certifications.

Membership
Members are expected to provide eight combined hours of service/training per month. In order to become an Auxiliary Officer you must be 18 years of age, have graduated high-school, be physically able to perform the duties of an Auxiliary Police Officer, and pass a background check.

HISTORICAL SOCIETY OF HADDONFIELD - GREENFIELD HALL

Greenfield Hall was built in 1841 by John Gill IV on property which had been in his family since the early 1700's. The first John Gill had purchased the land from his cousin, Elizabeth Haddon Estaugh, founder of the town, and had erected a farmhouse to the rear of the present structure. John Gill II built another house to replace the farmhouse. This second house served as the Gill residence for the next hundred years until John Gill IV had it razed in order to build a new and grander mansion in anticipation of his second marriage to Elizabeth French of Moorestown, NJ.

Today Greenfield Hall is furnished much as it would have been when the Gills were in residence and contains collections of furniture, needlework, dolls, tool, costumes and early glass and pottery. Next door is the Samuel Mickle House, also known as the Hip Roof House, the oldest house still standing in town. It serves as the Society's research library, open to the public for research purposes. The library is open on Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays from 1:00 to 4:00 pm. Special appointments may also be made for the library by calling 856-429-7375.

Books and pamphlets have been produced by the Society throughout the years and its Bulletin, published for times a year, contains not only news of the organization bat also interesting accounts of past events and people who lived in the area. Exhibits, special events, celebrations and fundraising activities are held in the mansion during the year.

Both Greenfield Hall and the Samuel Mickle House are included in the New Jersey Register of Historic Places a well as in the National Register.
