Whether you’re looking to serve your community or earn service hours, the library has several options for you to start volunteering.
All teen volunteers must be at least 13 years of age to begin volunteering. The library does not provide hours for court-related service requirements at this time. Drop-in volunteer opportunities are typically only available around Winter Break and early January and are posted on the library calendar.
