Eligibility
Volunteers must be 14 years or older to volunteer. They must also sign an agreement form along with a parent/guardian

Volunteer Time
A Volunteer is responsible for signing in upon arrival at the library and keeping track of their volunteering hours

Community Service Forms
These must be requested by the volunteer well in advance of the due date for school, honor societies, religious groups, etc. (This excludes court-mandated community service.)

In Case of Emergency, Sickness, or Lateness
If a volunteer cannot come in, they must call the library and speak with a librarian letting them know they will not be in (if Homework Help, call the parent/guardian).


Volunteens

A Volunteen will have a range of responsibilities that may include helping with events (preparation, set up, breakdown etc.), shelf reading, displays, creating shelf-talkers, and more.

Homework Help
