Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial Library Teen Volunteer

DC Public Library is currently recruiting for volunteers for several positions. The Library offers regular and periodic volunteer opportunities for ages 14 and up. Whether you’re new in town, a longtime D.C. resident, club, college student or library professional, we look forward to hearing from you.

Teen Volunteer (ages 14-17): The Library maintains a dedicated group of teen volunteers, ages 14-17. Teen volunteers play a crucial role at DC Public Library. They help create displays and booklists, shelve materials, assist with children’s programs, set up activities, photo copy library forms and much more. This is a great opportunity for teens to learn valuable job-related skills, help out within their community, promote literacy, and meet new people. High School community service may be earned at a local library depending on project and supervisor availability. Teens can complete up to five service hours per week.
