Volunteer for us!

The Library is accepting applications for summertime young adult volunteers. Volunteers put away books in the Children’s Department, help prepare arts and crafts projects, and assist the Children’s Department staff with clerical tasks. Applicants must be going into 6th grade or older. Volunteers generally work one hour a week. Applications are available in the Children’s Department.
