Volunteer!
Volunteers are needed in the child area to register children for the Summer Reading Club. We are looking for high school students who enjoy interacting with children. As a volunteer, you would be explaining this years theme, "Fizz Boom Read!" and how to use their reading log to earn rewards over the summer. Volunteers will need to attend a training session on either June 11 (4:00-5:00 PM) or June 12 (7:00 - 8:00 PM). You will be needed for one or two hours at a time beginning June 14 through July 19. If you are interested, please come into the Children's Library or contact Deborah Miller at dmiller@bernards.org.
