Definition: notary - someone legally empowered to witness signatures and certify a document's validity.  Notary is free service to Red Bank Public Library cardholders.  Effective August 15, 2016 there will be a charge of $1.00 per signature for non Red Bank Public Library cardholders.  The Red Bank Public Library offers Notary Public services for the benefit of the residents of our community. The following guidelines will be observed in the provision of Notary Service:

• Notary Services are available during the Library’s hours of operation and are not available in the fifteen (15) minutes after the time of opening or prior to the time of closing.
• Notary Service may not be possible if the document is pre-signed.
• All parties that need to sign the document must be present with valid photo identification.
• Customers seeking Notary Service should call the Library prior to their visit to ensure that the Notary is available. The Notary can be reached by calling 732-842-0690.
• Notary Service is provided on a first-come, first-serve basis.
• Valid government-issued photo identification is required of any customer seeking Notary Service.
• Notary Service is limited to three (3) documents per person, per visit.
• Documents in English and in Spanish may be notarized, depending on the notary available.
• Notary Service is not available for Deeds, Mortgages, Wills, Living Wills, Living Trusts, Codicils or Depositions.

• New Jersey law requires that a Notary and the customer seeking notarization be able to communicate directly with each other. The Library Notary is not permitted to make use of a translator to communicate with a Notary Service customer.
• 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.
