Volunteers

Do you have a few free hours a week? Do you want to give back to your community? Do you enjoy helping others? If so, you may want to become a library volunteer.

Adult and youth volunteers support and enhance library services in various positions. Book menders, shelvers, shelf readers, audiovisual repairers, clerical and telephone assistants, youth, reference and program assistants support the library on a daily basis. Tutors, docent/reader advisors, and special project assistants enhance the Library System and the community.

Adult and youth volunteer opportunities are available year-round. Additionally, the VolunTeen Program for ages 12-18, assists with the Summer Reading Program from June through August each year.
