JOIN OUR ADULT VOLUNTEER PROGRAM!
In 2018, our volunteers spent almost 3,400 hours of their own time serving the library and the Friends of the Library have raised over $46,000 to support library programs. By helping us, our volunteers are ultimately supporting their own community – their neighbors, their colleagues, and their friends – by helping to provide a welcoming destination for educational and social opportunities at the Middletown Township Public Library.
Volunteers are always welcomed at our library! It’s a great way to become involved in the community. Please fill out the volunteer application and bring it to the library next time you visit. The staff will have a few questions to find the right placement for you and training will be arranged.
MTPL is looking for enthusiastic volunteers for our Homebound Services Program. Volunteers will deliver pre-selected materials to the resident and will be responsible for returning items by their due date. For more information on the Homebound Program, please click here.
Please note: if you are a teen and you wish to volunteer, you must fill out a separate form. Go to the Teen Volunteer page for more information or e-mail Teen Librarian Melissa for any questions at mcecchini@mplmain.mtpl.org
