How you help

Volunteers help with many projects across the building. Some are ongoing while many are unique things that happen only occasionally or a single time.  We are indebted to all of the amazing volunteers who help us provide services to the community. Without volunteers, we could not do all that we do.

A few projects that volunteers help us with regularly include:

  • Re-shelving returned books
  • Landscaping maintenance
  • Assistance at programs
  • Crafts for programs
  • Reading to children through RIF and ROAR
  • Material indexing and organization

The Library also helps patrons in need of community service when possible.
