Whether it be coming in on a regular basis to help keep the library's collection organized, baking some cookies for one of our events, or pitching in at a work party to spruce up the building and grounds, volunteers are critical to this venerable institution's ability to continue to serve the community.

• Grant research and writing—for new programs, special projects, and the endowment.
• Children's activities—get involved with the summer reading program, organize a story hour, organize game times, help with movie night, etc.
• Endowment campaign—help the board organize and conduct a much-needed effort bolster our endowment, thereby increasing our yearly operating income and ensuring the long-term financial stability of the organization.
• Helping with periodic building and grounds maintenance tasks..
• Become a Board member—dedicated individuals with the time and energy to make the extra effort to keep this great institution running smoothly are needed to fill the spots left when members step down.
