Volunteers at the Ypsilanti District Library provide an important service by assisting the library in its mission.

The library does not accept volunteers through any court-ordered program.

Friends of the Ypsilanti District Library

The Friends of the Ypsilanti District Library are always looking for volunteers. Opportunities include:

Volunteering at YDL

Ideal volunteers will be able to commit to helping at the library for several months. Volunteers must be ages 18 and over. If you are interested, please complete our Volunteer Application form and submit it to:

Karen Esper, Administrative Receptionist

Event Volunteers

In addition, YDL occasionally looks for volunteers to provide extra hands at our biggest programs. These events happen 2-3 times per year and are typically held on Saturdays. Examples of this type of work may include:

  • Operating an activity station
  • Helping prepare craft supplies

To be notified of upcoming events that need volunteers, please join our email list and check the “volunteer” box.

Teen Volunteers

We know that many students want to give back to their community and that many schools require volunteer hours to graduate. So we have put together a variety of ways teens can apply to earn hours–from being part of our youth leadership team to helping at programs when you have extra time. Choose what fits your schedule and interests. You’ll earn volunteer hours, build your resume, and earn letters of recommendation, too.
