Work shifts are one half day each week.
Volunteers with Information Burlington must enjoy interacting with the public and be able to work in a fast-paced environment. Book Delivery to Home Readers Volunteers deliver books to one or two shut-in patrons as assigned. A library staff member packs a selection of books on a monthly basis and the volunteer delivers and picks up the borrowed books. A car is required, but there is no reimbursement for mileage. Local History Projects Volunteers index microfilmed local history resources to provide easier access to information for genealogists and other researchers.
