Volunteer: Circulation Support at Central
This month, Central Library is looking for enthusiastic and detail-oriented people to join our team of Circulation Support Volunteers. It's no accident that the department that keeps Library materials moving - from the return bins to the shelves, out to the branches and back again - is called 'Circulation.' Without it, the Library would get all backed-up, and cease to function effectively.
Circulation Support Tasks include:
- Processing holds for Library users
- Sorting books by call number
- Assembling carts for shelvers
- Shelving New Books
The current openings are for Sunday afternoon. Circulation Support volunteers should have the physical ability to bend, stretch, stand for a long period, and wheel a cart of library books around.
Interested? Visit the Library's volunteer page for a complete job description, and to fill out an online application.
