DISPLAY CASES
Large and Small Display Cases
On exhibition in the large and small display cases in October 2021 during Domestic Violence Awareness Month was the display “Baring Our Soles”. This exhibit showcased ornately designed footwear created by clients in the Center for Hope & Safety (formerly known as Shelter our Sisters) Art-Therapy program. The footwear is an expression of the journey that survivors take as they work through their trauma toward a more optimistic future. The Center for Hope & Safety is an advocacy group devoted to assisting women and children who are the victims of domestic violence.
Brochures are available for pickup or downloaded here.

Local History Collection Exhibition
The exhibition from the Local History Collection on the lower level stairwell display case is a selection of books and historical pamphlets, which mark the 25th, 50th, 75th, and 100th anniversaries of the founding of the Borough of Oradell in 1894. Although there is not a commemorative book for the 125th anniversary this year (2019), we celebrate the Borough’s history with these older publications. Copies of the earlier commemorative books are all in the Local History Collection and are available for circulation in the catalog. The books commemorating the 75th and 100th anniversaries of the Borough are also available for sale from the Friends of the Library.
