Volunteer with Friends of the Jackson County Public Library
At the Friends of the Jackson County Public Library, every volunteer is an important part of our ongoing story. Whether you're a book lover, a community advocate, or someone looking to make a meaningful contribution, your involvement can make a big difference.
Reasons to Volunteer
We believe the public library is one of our community’s greatest assets. Volunteering with us is about more than giving your time. It is about being part of a community that values literacy, supports local culture, and fosters a love for reading.
