Volunteer shelving items in the library

Volunteering at Wallingford Public Library

As of July 30, we are at capacity for volunteers and are placing new volunteers on pause. Please check back in the fall for more details or new opportunities. 

The commitment, generosity, and passion of volunteers ensure continued library success. Our volunteers help prepare and run our Book Seller, put CDs and DVDs away, maintain the Collaboratory, help keep our shelves in good order, assist with programs, create content for our TikTok Page, serve on the Library’s Board of Managers, and teach valuable skills to others. We are grateful for our volunteers and take great pleasure in honoring them at an annual recognition event in May. 

Our program utilizes both adult and student volunteers.
