Volunteering at Wallingford Public Library

The commitment, generosity, and passion of volunteers ensure continued library success. Our volunteers help prepare and run our Book Seller, maintain the Collaboratory, 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.
