The Library can always use volunteers to help around the Library! We graciously accept help from teens and adults 14 years and older. Examples of tasks include shelving books, prepping and assisting for programs, folding newsletters, and more.
We provide a signed copy of your volunteer hours worked as well as a letter to submit for credit for school or social organizations.

If you are interested in volunteering, please print, fill out, and return our Teens' Volunteer Application. Note, a parent/legal guardian must also sign this form. Copies are also available at the Library's Front Desk.
