The following guidelines will be followed in the provision of notary service:

- Notary service is limited to three (3) documents per person, per scheduled appointment.
- Documents in any language other than English will not be notarized at any of our facilities.
- New Jersey law requires that a notary and the customer seeking notarization be able to communicate directly with each other. Library notaries are not permitted to make use of a translator to communicate with a notary service customer.
- Notary service is not available for deeds, wills, living wills, living trusts, codicils, mortgages or depositions.
- Certain public documents cannot be copied and notarized. Examples of these are birth certificates, death certificates, marriage certificates, passports and divorce documents.
- In accordance with New Jersey Notarial Law, notaries will not provide service if the customer, document or circumstances of the request for notary service raise any issue of authenticity, ambiguity, doubt or uncertainty for the library. In this event, the library notary may, at his/her sole discretion, decline to provide notary service.
Preparing for your appointment
Identification Requirements:
Anyone signing document and witnesses (if required) must bring valid identification documents such as government-issued photo identification. A staff notary may decline to notarize a document if the signer cannot provide acceptable ID.
Document Requiring Notarization:
Please ensure your documents have been completed and ready for signature before your scheduled appointment. Your document will indicate if the person signing it must sign in the presence of the notary.
Witnesses (if required):
The library will not provide witnesses and witnesses may not be solicited from customers at the library. In order to serve as a witness, the witness must personally know the person whose document is being notarized and must be in possession of valid photo identification.
