Be a Summer Volunteer

If you like to help people, especially children, you should consider volunteering at the library during the summer!  In 2005, we had over 80 teen volunteers!  Here's more information:

  • Rising seventh through twelfth graders are welcome.

  • Application forms are only available in May in both libraries.

  • We need volunteers during all hours that the library is open.  On the application, you will write several times that work for you.

  • You may volunteer for as little as two hours per week (one shift).  Most volunteer for four hours per week.

  • You must be available for at least four out the six weeks of the summer reading program for your shift.

  • You must attend an orientation session in order to volunteer.

  • The library keeps track of your volunteer hours.  This comes in handy when you are applying for stuff later on!

  • We have a volunteer party at the end of every summer.  It's a blast!
