Our Book Sale Committee could always use a helping hand. If you would like to join the team, simply indicate your preference when filling out the Library's Volunteer Application Form. Tasks include: Moving Materials: Donated items need to be moved into storage until the time comes to move them out of storage for display in our sales. If you can handle lifting medium to heavy loads, this may be the task for you. Sorting Materials: Once on display, we sort our materials by genre so everyone can find that cherished book, audiobook, music, movie, or puzzle they’re looking for. If you like to organize, this is the task for you. Staffing a Shift at a Sale: During the Spring and Fall Book Sales, the Committee schedules volunteers to work short shifts answering questions and completing sales. If you are good at making change and small talk, this may be the task for you. Questions or concerns, contact the Library Volunteer Coordinator, Theresa Osborne, at tosborne@pls-net.org or 315-789-5303 ext. 104 |
The Library accepts item donations year-round to supply our Balcony Bookstore, Spring Book Sale, and Fall Book Sale. View our How to Donate page if you wish to give materials.
