When teens volunteer at the library, they gain new skills, make
connections, and build their resumes, while libraries benefit from
a new generation of advocates. This guide shows librarians how to
establish or develop a teen volunteer program. Advocating a
flexible approach, this book speaks to every library, including
both public and school libraries. From small libraries with no
budget to large libraries with seemingly endless budgets and
everything in between, all of the concepts covered can be scaled up
or down to meet the needs of the community being served. The book
begins with the big picture, discussing benefits to teens,
libraries, and communities; it then reviews volunteer types and
volunteer possibilities for teens, including the traditional roles
of shelving and programming as well as passion-led projects,
programming opportunities, and special initiatives and drives.
Specific volunteer roles are described in depth, with instructions
for practical applications, and concrete examples and experiences
from various types of libraries illustrate principles discussed.
Readers will also learn how to establish volunteer partnerships
within and outside of the library. The book ends with a discussion
of methods for evaluation and assessment.
