Library volunteering
Volunteering with your local library is a great way to make new friends, inspire others and make a difference!
You can choose the volunteering that suits you. Do you want to learn new skills or share those you already have? Want to build on previous experience, or try your hand at something new? Or do you want to just give us a hand?
Who can volunteer?
- Anyone over the age of 13 can volunteer with Cambridgeshire Libraries.
- You do not need any qualifications or previous experience.
- Some roles with vulnerable people require you to be over 18, and will require an enhanced DBS check. We will take you through this process.
Where and when are roles available?
Volunteering with us can take place in a library, in your community, or from home. We have tasks that can be done in an hour a week, or more - depending on what fits with you.
Our volunteer roles
We have a wide range of opportunities. Each offers different ways to develop new skills.
