How many hours can I expect to get and how quickly?
This can depend on what we've got going on at the library! Volunteers may request 2 shifts per week. Shifts vary between 1-2.5 hours long. The library hosts many larger events that do give volunteers the opportunity to get 3-4 hours in an afternoon but this is dependent on our event calendar.
