The live Dutchie menu is the source of truth for what is in stock at The Library on the day; these are the West Orange category pages that send you to it.

THC drinks deserve their own note this year. According to the Cannabis Regulatory Commission's hemp FAQ, New Jersey's new definition of hemp took effect on April 13, 2026, and since May 31, 2026 an intoxicating hemp beverage may hold no more than 5 mg of THC per serving or 10 mg per container. Liquor wholesalers and liquor stores may sell those beverages only until November 13, 2026, twelve days before Green Wednesday. From November 14, a hemp beverage with more than 0.4 mg of THC per container can be sold only by a licensed cannabis retailer. Our THC drinks page explains what that means and what The Library carries.

New Jersey Purchase Limits, ID and Tax

The rules below come from the New Jersey Cannabis Regulatory Commission and the Division of Taxation; the links are in the Sources section. They matter more on Green Wednesday than on any other day, because the one-ounce cap is per transaction and most people are buying for four days.

• You must be 21 or older with a valid government-issued photo ID. Driver's license, state ID, passport or military ID all work.
• New Jersey residents and visitors can both buy; the Cannabis Regulatory Commission says so on its adult-use page. Carrying cannabis across state lines is still illegal, so it stays in New Jersey.
• Per transaction: the equivalent of 1 ounce (28.35 grams) of usable cannabis. That is 1 ounce of flower, or 4 grams of concentrate or vape oil, or 1,000 mg of edibles, or a mix, for example a half ounce of flower plus 2 grams of concentrate.
• Possession: adults may have up to 6 ounces.
• Tax: retail cannabis sales are subject to New Jersey Sales Tax, which is 6.625% (Division of Taxation). West Orange also levies a 2% cannabis transfer tax on the dispensary's sales (West Orange Township Code § 22-3).
• Pay with cash, debit or CanPay. Credit cards are not accepted for cannabis. An ATM is on site.
• Do not use anything in the car or the lot, and do not drive after using. The Cannabis Regulatory Commission says New Jersey's impaired-driving laws apply to cannabis.

Shopping It at The Library, West Orange

The plan that skips the line

1. Order the night before or in the morning. Browse the live menu, add what you want and reserve it for pickup.
2. Pick up in store or at the curb. Ordering ahead means you skip the line at the counter. Curbside pickup is explained on the Curbside Pickup page.
3. Bring the ID you ordered with. The name on the order and the ID must match, and you must be 21 or older.
4. Stay inside one ounce. If your cart mixes flower, concentrate and edibles, the budtender will tell you where it lands against the state cap before you pay.
5. Keep it sealed until you are home. Nothing opens in the lot or the car.
