AARP Tax-Aide

Unfortunately, AARP will not be holding their Tax-Aide program at Wharton Library this year. Please visit the NJ 211 VITA site listing, the AARP Foundation Tax-Aide Locator, or United Way of Northern New Jersey Free Tax Preparation (online service) for alternative options. AARP is also offering free online tax preparation software to help you file your taxes on your own or with virtual assistance from an AARP Tax-Aide counselor. We apologize for the inconvenience.

Curbside Printing Service

To have your documents printed for you for curbside pick-up, please call the library to let us know when you have something to print, then email your files to circ-wha@mainlib.org OR bring all documents to be printed to the library on a USB flash drive. Prints are $0.15 per page for black & white and $0.50 per page for color, cash only.

Fines and Renewals

Fees for late returns have been reinstated. As of January 4th, all eligible materials will automatically renew three days before their original due date; no sign-up is required. Exclusions include accounts with fines exceeding $10.00, items with holds, items that have reached their renewal limit, digital materials, and items borrowed from libraries outside of MAIN. Only patrons who receive notifications by email will be sent a notice when items have auto-renewed. Patrons who do not have an email address associated with their account will still have their items renewed automatically but will not receive these additional notifications. Please call the library with any questions about our new policies.
