Volunteering

Junior Volunteers:

Junior High School Volunteers in the Children’s Room:

Students in grades 6,7, or 8 are invited to volunteer in the Children’s Room. During the school year, we have space for 12 volunteers per week.

The school year is divided into three segments of 3 months each: October, November, December, and January, February, March, and April, May, June. This allows for 12 hours of volunteering per segment (1 hour/week). Hours are available after school until 30 minutes before closing, Monday through Saturday.

During July and August, we sign up to 30 volunteers who help with the Summer Reading Program and other tasks. Please email rcarter@actonma.gov for a copy of the application or for more information.

Teen Volunteers:

Are you looking to be a Teen Volunteer? Do you need to complete you community service hours for school? Our volunteers help to keep shelves in order, re-shelve returned items, assist in the Reference, Children’s, Technical Services or Circulation departments, or perform other tasks as needed. Please email asood@actonma.gov for a copy of the application or for more information.

Leadership Volunteer Opportunities:

The AML Teen Advisory Board is a leadership volunteer opportunity that meets during the school year on the last Wednesday of each month. This leadership opportunity helps you gain experience managing various projects, working collaboratively with a team and leading change in an organization. If so consider joining our meeting and help us decide on events, books, and other teen services and be the change you want to see!
