Make a difference in your community – volunteer at your local library!
I volunteer because it is my civic duty. Also, it is good exercise! I also like to volunteer at the library because I enjoy interacting with the public and because the library is a learning environment.
I volunteer because I love to read and I love the library! When I volunteer, I feel like I am making a contribution to the library."
The reason I volunteer is that it's payback time for all the free books I'm able to read!
I volunteer because of the feeling of doing something needed and worthwhile for people who appreciate it!
Volunteer opportunities are available for individuals who have completed 5th grade and on up; please contact the Library location where you are most interested in volunteering.
