BOOKSTORE VOLUNTEERS

We are not currently onboarding new Bookstore volunteers. Please check back periodically for future opportunities.

Volunteers generally work at least one 2 hour shift per week. Volunteer shifts are generally Monday through Friday from 9:30 am to noon. Please note: volunteers do not handle customer transactions.

BRANCH BOOKSALE VOLUNTEERS

Honor booksales at MCPL Branches rely on volunteers for tasks including sorting and shelving. Volunteering is an active position requiring bending, lifting, stretching, and shifting boxes of books up to 40lbs on occasion.  FOLMC is interested mainly in long-term volunteers to ensure consistency of sales. Apply to volunteer at honor sales here.

FOLMC is looking for library-loving professionals to join our Board of Trustees. Terms begin in July of each year. Our board is a dedicated group of working and retired professionals who have a passion for Montgomery County Public Libraries. They provide guidance, leadership, oversight, and extra pairs of hands to our small staff on a wide variety of projects. Does this sound like you or someone you know? If you have skills in finance, fundraising, human resources, or marketing, or if you know someone who does, complete the online Board Nomination Application here.
