Do you secretly sneak books from the book sales?ylisa7 wrote:I love libraries. My schedule doesn't enable me to work consistent hours but I do volunteer to help out with some of the many programs my libraries offer. My favorites are the Summer Reading Program for kids under 12 and also the book sales
I'm kidding!!!

That is my favorite thing to volunteer for. The kids love the program and are so much fun.Happily Candied wrote:I don't work at a library at the moment, but I volunteered at one years ago. I helped out children with their summer reading program. I absolutely loved working in such a comforting and rich atmosphere with parents and children who were genuinely excited about books.
I'd love to work at one again in the future.

Do you touch a lot of books?ryanj1 wrote:I volunteer at a local library and I love it. Sorting shelves generally just consists of reading the first page of every book you touch
