Adopt-a-Shelf at the Winter Park Library

Save to Favorites

Do you love books? Would you consider adopting some? The Winter Park Public Library is launching a new volunteer program called Adopt-a-Shelf. Adopt-a-Shelf volunteers will choose a section in our collection to keep neat and orderly and ensure that items are in their correct place. It’s a great way to learn more about library organization, discover new authors and topics, and enjoy being a library ambassador.

There will be an information and training meeting for interested Adopt-a-Shelf volunteers on Friday, August 18 from 2:00pm until 3:30pm.

• Volunteers will be trained in Dewey Decimal System but should have knowledge of how to file items in alphabetical and numerical order.
• Volunteers should be able to commit to a three month "adoption period," for at least 1 hour every 2 weeks.
• Volunteers should be comfortable lifting books and have the ability to reach the top and bottom shelves.

If you are interested in attending the meeting, we are asking that you sign up by following this link:
