Please keep in mind that the Library usually has about four times as many applications as positions, so late placements are rare. Notification of placements will be mailed on or about May 16. Preference is given to returning volunteers and older youth. New volunteers may be asked to have an interview with the Volunteer Coordinator. Please do not call the Volunteer Coordinator's office before May 16 to check on your placement.
Training is mandatory for all volunteers.
There will be an evening session and a morning session. Please indicate on the application which session suits you best. At the end of the program, we will have a party and volunteers will receive certificates of participation. We will also ask volunteers to complete a survey that will help the Library plan for future programs. Storytime and Reading Program helpers work with the Youth Librarian or Program Specialist at Faulk Central and branch locations to help with crowd control at storytime, arts and crafts projects, room preparation and clean-up, and distribution of Summer Reading Program materials and incentives.
