FAQs About Volunteer Work in the
Library
Who
should volunteer?
YOU! If you enjoy being around
children and books, volunteer to help in the library!
Why does the library need volunteers?
There is always work to be
done in the library. And since the library does not
have a paid library assistant, the library welcomes volunteers
who are willing to do the various clerical tasks that
are crucial to the smooth operation and maintenance of a
library.
When the librarian has help
with the clerical duties, she has more time to devote to instruction and planning, working with students and teachers,
collection development, and the overall administration of the library.
Do
volunteers need any special skills?
No. It helps to be somewhat familiar with the Dewey Decimal System,
but we are happy to do "on-the-job training".

What will I
be expected to do?
Since the library has a high
circulation, most of a volunteer's time will be spent
shelving materials. However, when volunteers are not
shelving they may be asked to:
-
straighten
the books on the
shelves
-
label and cover new
materials
-
mend and clean
books
-
help
students
-
pull materials for
teachers
-
make copies
How
often do volunteers work in the library? And how long?
It varies.
Most volunteers choose to work once a week or every
other week. Some volunteers help once a month, while
others help twice a week. Most volunteers work in shifts
of 30min - 1hr. Some volunteers work longer shifts. When
and how long you work is up to you. Choose the day,
frequency and time that is most convenient for you. |
