Don’t forget that tomorrow, Helen Dunlap Newton, author of Night of the Amber Moon and Do Your Hear What I Hear?, will be talking to our teens (6th grade and up) and leading them through a writing workshop! She’ll also be holding a writing contest for them that will conclude in early July. The workshop is from 1:00-2:30 tomorrow (Wednesday)!
We are in need of volunteers for summer reading (as always)! This year, we have an application for teens to fill out if they’re interested in volunteering.
A few things to note:
-it’s a quick turnaround….we need the applications back by May 17th (either emailed to director@nortonvillelibrary.org or dropped off at the library)
-Applicants must be 13 years old by June 2, 2023
-There will be a mandatory orientation for volunteers, dates TBD but there will be options to choose to attend
-Scheduling will be totally flexible…applicants will let us know how much or how little they’d like to help and we’ll work around their schedules)
-Volunteers will receive a t-shirt and a special gift at the end of the summer
-Volunteers can still participate in the summer reading program and earn prizes
-Any hours a volunteer works at the library can go towards community service hours at JCN for the 2023-24 school year
I know it’s a lot of info! Let us know if you have any questions.
