Volunteering
From assisting with programs, shelving or mending books to a variety
of other library tasks, volunteers play an integral part in the
daily operation of Westchester Public Library.
Applications for volunteering are available at all library service
desks. The minimum age is 14 years old. A screening interview will
be held with the library director or the head of the department
to allow them to match your interests and available hours with the
library’s needs.
Youth Volunteer Program
This program recruits and trains teen volunteers to assist library
staff and the public in the Youth Department. It provides teens
12 to 19 years old with confidence-building experience, which develops
practical job skills and good customer/public service attitudes.
Applications for volunteers during the summer reading program are
available in April at the Westchester Public Library youth services
desk. For more information, call (708) 562-3573 and ask to speak
with a youth librarian.
