An Invitation to Join our Team of Volunteers
Our bookstore is staffed by over seventy volunteers. Each of them happily gives a few hours each month. They work as a team and enjoy a friendly environment.
The FOL bookstore provides significant funding to our Henderson County Public Library. Our FOL is a non-profit 501(c)3; organized in 1957. The mission of our library is joined in and fully supported by the FOL and our bookstore volunteers.
How Can You Help? Please, consider what best fits your interest and availability.
1) “Shelvers” place books on our shelves and keeps them organized. Two to four hours per week. Not during store hours. A little lifting of up to 25 pounds.
