You can join our elite corps of dedicated volunteers! You can make a big difference int he quality of library service in your community by sharing your time and talent.
Library volunteers work side-by-side with staff in library activities. There is an ongoing need for help checking books in and out, sorting and shelving, self-reading, assisting with special projects, answering phones, gardening, and more.
Volunteers are selected based upon their qualifications in relation to the needs of the library at any given time, and based on their ability to commit to a consistent schedule of volunteer hours, typically 2 – 3 hour time slots weekly. Selection of in-house volunteers is the responsibility of the Library Director.
Groups and families are encourage to volunteer at Library events such as Summer Reading programs and special events. For more information on how your group or family can volunteer, ask for Sandy.
