Volunteers must be 16 years of age or older to volunteer at the Pembroke Public Library.

You’ll need to apply to volunteer, and attend an interview. You’ll also need to complete a Criminal Records Check, and a Vulnerable Sector check, before you start volunteering. To waive the charge for the Police Record Check the Library will provide a letter stating the request for volunteering at the Library.

Pembroke Public Library also offers volunteer opportunities for individuals under the age of 16 through the Teen Advisory Group.

More information about the Teen Advisory Group can be found HERE.
