We’d like to know what you thought of your volunteer experience at the library this summer. Please answer the questions below. You can be honest – you do not need to put your name on this survey. Overall, how did you like volunteering at the library this summer?

It was great! It was ok It was pretty boring I didn’t like it at all Was volunteering at the library what you expected it to be?

Yes No If no, how did it differ than what you expected? How did you feel about the number of shifts you worked?

Not enough Too much Just right What did you think of the volunteer orientation?

I learned a lot and felt prepared Too much information

Not enough information I didn’t go

I’ve volunteered before and didn’t really feel I needed to attend orientation again What tasks did you like doing as a volunteer? What tasks did you not like doing? Was there anything you wished you could have done as a volunteer that you didn’t get to do? Did you help out at any of the Parks & Rec programs this summer (Delta Rocks, Mud Run, etc.)? If yes, what did you think about your experience? Next year would it be helpful if we handed out a contact list of all the volunteers so you could switch shifts with others if needed?

Yes No

For the future, what do you think is the best way to notify volunteers of extra shifts that we have open?

Keep a list at the Youth Desk for volunteers to check when in the library (what we currently do)

Post it on a blog or other website (volunteers could check periodically or subscribe by RSS)

Email

Phone call

Other (please describe): Would it have been helpful to you if the volunteer schedule were posted online somewhere?

Yes No, my paper copy worked fine Other comments & suggestions:
