Thank you for your interest in volunteering at the Framingham Public Library. 

The volunteer opportunity is to shelf read our collection, which means checking the shelves to insure that books and other materials are in proper order. When you are ready to apply for a volunteer position, please print the application form, fill it out (please print clearly!), and send it to Michelle LeMonde-McIntyre, Community Services Librarian, Framingham Public Library, 49 Lexington Street, Framingham MA 01702 or drop it off at the library. You may also pick up an application in person at the Main Library.

Next, follow up in a few days by calling Ms. LeMonde-McIntyre at 508-532-6347 to set up a time for an interview and to take the Pages Test.

The library asks for a three-month minimum commitment from each volunteer, and the volunteer program at the library does not include court-ordered community service hours.
 
Opportunities are also available with the Friends of the Library’s booksale (508-879-0815) or with Literacy Unlimited, the library’s basic literacy and English-As-A-Second-Language program.

We look forward to hearing from you!
