Each month approximately 100 volunteers contribute their time and energy to various activities within the library.  Assignments range from patron registration to children's programs assistance.  Both the library and the volunteer are enriched through this interaction.

Applications for volunteer service may be obtained in the Grant R. Brimhall Library's Administration Offices, the Newbury Park Branch Library, or go to Become a Volunteer page.
