LIBRARY CLUB Does not involve reading Perfect for those who wish to help out in the library! Shelving books, shelf reading, working on the display case, and assisting the librarians with anything they might need help with. Earn volunteer hours when you work OUTSIDE of school hours. Display cases are done monthly and are a great way to earn quick volunteer hours! (Note: Every member is eligible – and encouraged - to work on the display case)
