Volunteer Opportunities

Thank you for your interest in volunteering at the Northborough Free Library!  

We are currently at capacity for library volunteers. You can still turn in a form and a librarian will contact you, if opportunities become available. Please visit the Friends of the Library page for information on volunteering with the Friends.

Please fill out the Volunteer Application Form and turn it into the library. Paper copies are available at the library.

Applicants in grades 8-12 must complete the applications themselves, except for the last section, which must be completed by a parents or guardian. Parents, please do not fill out the application for your teenage child.

Volunteers typically work on tasks like:

  • Processing books
  • Other small projects as available

Please email your completed form to Reference at noboadults@cwmars.org or bring it to the Reference Desk on the 2nd floor. We hold individual applications for up to 1 year. Send any questions/concerns to the same email address.
