We are looking for enthusiastic, friendly volunteers who want to help our patrons learn to use technology at our libraries and our makerspace services.  Duties will involve helping patrons resolve technology issues and helping library staff with makerspace projects and activities, including set-up, leading a program/session and clean-up.   

If you are comfortable with using any of the following: PCs, Apple computers, Microsoft Office, mobile devices, the internet, and have basic familiarity with saving and printing materials, we encourage you to apply to volunteer with us!  As a volunteer you will receive maker-related training to help prepare for working with patrons.
