Volunteer Opportunities Boulder Public Library offers a diverse and rewarding selection of volunteer opportunities in more than 20 program placement areas, distributed among our four library branches. Volunteer positions are available to adults, teens and children. Regular volunteer commitments are often three hours a week, but hours vary according to specific positions. Below is a partial list of BPL volunteer positions currently in greatest demand. Each program assists a different population and performs a needed service for the community.
Volunteers select and deliver books to homebound patrons and nursing homes.
They help input information in regular text for the Braille Computer Center, and format and proofread after the material is translated into Braille. Volunteers also assist with general office organization. The Special Services Office could not provide assistance to the many people in the community who depend on these services without dedicated volunteers. Computer and Internet experience are preferred. Shifts are two hours weekly.
