What is a Teen Volunteer?

If you're a teenager interested in volunteer service, then Winter Park Public Library’s Teen Volunteers is the program for you! Volunteering at the Library is a great way for teenagers to fulfill community service requirements both during the school year and during the summer months. Teen Volunteers are young patrons who assist library staff with a variety of library-related tasks such as preparing and presenting children’s programs, filing and shelving library materials, and other duties.

Teen Volunteer Requirements

• 12 to 18 years of age.

• Minimum three-month commitment - six months or more preferred.
(This commitment does not apply during the months of June and July)

• Regular schedule is required for many positions (weekly or every other week).

Your Commitment

Please consider carefully whether this time commitment will fit your schedule or other life commitments. You must have the willingness and ability to make a commitment to your volunteer assignment. The Children's Department you volunteer in depends on you. We welcome students and recognize that you have changing schedule needs. We will do our best to work with you to accommodate these needs.

Volunteering can be a fun activity and very rewarding, but it also is very serious. Volunteering requires that you be willing to learn, work hard, be responsible and be open to new experiences.

If you are unable to come, please call us before your shift begins.
