Community Service
NPLD welcomes all applications for school or club related volunteering. Spots are limited, and while we cannot guarantee placement, we strive to accommodate all applicants. Applications must be turned in to the Adult Services Department on the second floor of the library or emailed to ccontreras@northlakelibrary.org.
Volunteering is self-scheduled. Volunteers will be able to assist the library as much (up to 10 hours a week) or as little as they need. Activities for volunteering can look like everything from:
- Helping us prepare for a program or event
- Helping us run and/or clean up for an event
- Creating displays for books, media, or services
- Writing book reviews on behalf of our Goodreads account
- Promoting the library on social media
- Advising our Teen Librarian on the Teen Discord Server
- Or, even, your own idea
- example 1: One of our volunteers started an SAT Prep Club and led it weekly.
- example 2: We had some volunteers who made posters advocating for library services and put them up in the windows of their houses during COVID shut down.
