Our Volunteer Program offers a volunteer-friendly environment where volunteers work alongside and are supported by paid staff to value-add to our collections, services and programs.
Volunteers provide support in a range of our services and programs. Roles include home library service couriers, literacy tutors, learning mentors, assistance with preservation and access to our unique archival and heritage collections, and general volunteers.
Our volunteer framework provides our volunteering objectives.
