Friends of the Library

Would you like to help the library?

Join the Friends of the Hood River County Library and participate. In the fiscal year 2019-2020, there were over 1,070 volunteer hours recorded at the library. Contact volunteer@hoodriverlibrary.org or 541-387-7067 if you are interested in one of our volunteer spots, or fill out this volunteer application and be contacted soon.

Volunteer positions available:

• Processing all incoming materials for the library: This group meets every Monday at 9:00 to cover books, tape books, and marking CDs so the new materials can be processed and put on the shelves for the patrons. (Please come in the staff / materials entrance on the lower level to join us. The library is closed on Mondays and the regular entrances are locked.)
• The Dirty Book Club:  Meets the 3rd Monday at 1:00pm to clean those dirty children’s books.
• Entrance Display: Creates fresh displays for the library foyer each month.
• Processing all donated books: for ongoing sales, the annual book sale, and for the “free” carts.
• Shelving: all returned books.
• Book sales: organizing, set up, and staffing for the annual 3-day book sale.
• Hood River Reads: a massive, annual undertaking with many volunteer opportunities.
