Our Buy a Brick campaign is winding down, and the outpouring of support we’ve been receiving has been amazing. Thank you to everyone who purchased a brick so far for the renovated North Edison Branch.
If you haven’t yet, there’s still time to leave your legacy on the Library grounds. Bricks can be inscribed with a special message of your choice and be dedicated to oneself, in remembrance of a loved one, or in honor of future generations.
The Buy a Brick campaign is organized by the Edison Public Library Foundation, and funds raised will enable us to offset costs for extra resources, such as new furniture, items for the expanded Children’s Room, and future programs, for the North Edison Branch.
Bricks come in two sizes—4” x 8” for $100 and 8” x 8” for $200—and order forms are available at all Library’s branches, on the Bookmobile, and on our website at edisonpubliclibrary.org/foundation. Brick orders are due by April 15, 2026 to ensure placement in time for the North Edison Branch’s grand re-opening.
Completed forms and payment can be sent to:

Reading to your child has been scientifically shown to have numerous benefits, and the 1,000 Books Before Kindergarten was designed to incentivize parents to give their children a head start.
Signing up for 1,000 Books Before Kindergarten is easy to do through our Beanstack program, which also allows you to track the books you’ve read. For every 100 books, parents can earn a virtual badge and also claim a prize from their local Edison Public Library branch.
For more information or to collect your welcome package for joining, stop into any EPL branch.
