Teen Volunteer Program
Students in grades
7-12 are invited to apply for volunteer shifts at the
community library. Community service hours along with
fun, treats, and an opportunity to win a scholarship
during senior year are some of the perks of volunteer
work.
Regular shifts include shelving books, working at the
circulation desk, processing books, and working on special projects.
Fill out a
volunteer application and then schedule an interview by calling
the library at 263-2885.
Service Scholarship
The Friends of the Library award a $2,000 scholarship annually to a
graduating teen volunteer planning to continue his or her education.
Applicants must have volunteered for a minimum of 2 semesters
(summer counts as one semester) with at least 50 community service
hours at the library. Applications will be available in January
2011. For more information, please contact the
library staff.
