Librarian Volunteers
Do you leave your day job at the library and go to
volunteer at another library?
• Church, synagogue, or other congregational library
• Museum library
• Association library
• School or media center
• Community reading room
• Small public library
We provide cataloging to all of these.

Paid Job vs. Volunteering
• Money. Small libraries often work on a miniscule budget.
• Scale. Solutions that work in a large library are unnecessarily complex for a small library. For example, cataloging on OCLC is rarely appropriate.
• Professional skills. You have to be able to do everything in a small library—even cataloging!
• Time. If you only volunteer a few hours, every minute has to count. Keying in a cataloging record from scratch is a waste of time.
