Teen Volunteers at Glen Rock Public Library
Teen Volunteer Opportunities
Glen Rock students in grades 6 - 12 are welcome to participate in our Teen Volunteer program. The following opportunities are available:
Shelf Reader - *temporarily unavailable*
Color A Smile - looking for last-minute volunteering opportunities? This is perfect for you! Visit the reference desk to pick up a coloring page, color it at the library, and return it to the reference desk for volunteer time. Completed pages will be mailed to Color A Smile, “a nonprofit organization that distributes cheerful drawings to nursing homes, hospitals, meals on wheels programs, our troops overseas, and anyone in need of a smile.” Spend 15 minutes, a half hour, an hour or two at the library coloring to make a difference!
No need to sign up in advance. Stop in anytime we are open. All pages & materials need to be returned to the reference desk by 8:30pm on Mondays, Wednesdays, & Thursdays; and 4:30pm on Tuesdays, Fridays, Saturdays, & Sundays.
To earn volunteer time, coloring pages should be completed in the library.
