For Volunteers

At Cambridge Public Library, volunteerism offers you tangible opportunities to engage in what we do and to become part of who we are. Our volunteers are our best ambassadors and an important part of our team, sharing their commitment, enthusiasm, and community spirit with our events, programs, and services. The supplemental support offered by volunteers helps us expand and enrich our services and allows us to reach farther and do more.
