The Talking Book & Braille Library Division of the State Library of Oregon is looking for one volunteer to help prepare files for digitization. This includes retrieving the paper files, removing staples and paper clips and cutting the files into single sheets. All while making sure the paper files remain in order.
We are looking for someone willing to volunteer a couple hours per week. The day of the week is flexible. This opportunity will run until all files have been prepped for digitization. However, there may be other opportunities available at the conclusion of the project. Thank you for your consideration! We hope to hear from you soon!

Description
The State Library of Oregon cultivates, preserves, and delivers library and information services to foster lifelong leaning and community engagement.
There are three main divisions of the State Library:
Government Information and Library Services provides research and reference assistance to state government and to persons on official state business. Their in-depth collection of more than one million items specializes in business, history, political and social sciences. The collection also includes federal and state government publications and a comprehensive collection of materials about Oregon.
Library Support and Development Services plans for statewide library development; consults with local librarians, citizens and government officials; reports library statistics; and administers state and federal library grant programs.
The Talking Book and Braille Library is the regional library for the Library of Congress' National Library Service for the Blind and Print Disabled.
