In the Home Borrower Program, volunteers pick up and deliver library books to borrowers who cannot come to the library themselves. Volunteers are asked to meet with their borrowers at least once a month. Meetings take place at the most convenient library branch. Volunteers must be 18 years of age, pass a background check, and have a valid driver's license and auto insurance.
