Goal

Help Shape the Library’s Future, One Book at a Time 📚 with Plainsboro Library’s Adopt-a-Book Program

At Plainsboro Library, every book tells a story, not just within its pages, but through the hands it passes. Now, you can be part of that story.

Through our Adopt-a-Book Program, you have the opportunity to support literacy, access to knowledge, and lifelong learning by adopting existing books, Launchpads, or shelves in our collection. Your gift helps grow and sustain a diverse, vibrant library for the whole community.

Whether you’re honoring someone special, celebrating a milestone, or simply sharing your love for learning, your support leaves a legacy that lasts.

While we will do our best to match your request, we cannot guarantee exact placement. You should leave the comments field blank if you have no preference for items adopted. All dedications will be honored for the lifetime of the item in circulation (books and Launchpads), or 5 years for shelf sponsorships.

Optional: You can dedicate your donation in honor or memory of someone special; if not, the default bookplate copy is "Adopted by [Donor Name]".
