Waretown Branch Library

I just moved to Waretown recently and it was my first time visiting Waretown library. Much smaller than the Toms River & Brick library where I used to go but the ladies working in the library are very warm and accommodating. They helped out with what I needed and even provided me information that I may need in the future.

So I gotta admit, I never liked libraries. To me they were always these repositories for musty books and curmudgeonly old librarians. I was wrong. So wrong. My quest began with the procurement of a book needed for a project at work. I called ahead to determine whether or not it was available. The woman who answered the phone pleasantly and promptly informed me that it was. So I embarked on my journey over to the Waretown branch to retrieve it. As I walked in, I was warmly greeted by staff. But I soon realized I had no idea what to do or how to find this. I wandered around like a lost child in a grocery store. Though I kind of enjoyed my meandering. The place felt homey. I half expected my grandmother to jump out around a corner and surprise me with a homebaked apple pie. Not like the lib

The librarians are so nice and helpful. Using the online system I can make sure what I want is there and if not they will try add locate it in the system and order it.

I love this branch of the Ocean County Library system 💙 it's my favorite. The people who work there are always pleasant and very helpful.

Book sale is excellent! Come a little after it starts for a nice, casual shop.
