Teen Tuesday: Summer Volunteer Meeting

Summer Reading is a VERY BUSY time here at the library, and we would love to have your help! Fill out our volunteer form below and we will be in touch shortly! The Lee County Library’s Summer Reading Program is a dynamic, innovative, and exciting program offered to children and teens in June and July to encourage a love of reading and learning outside of school hours. For the past three years, over 2,000 people have attended our programs, so we need a lot of help to make these programs successful! 

Volunteers are asked to work at least 15 hours over the course of the summer. Expected duties include prepping craft materials and games for programs, helping set up before and clean up after programs, running an assigned “station” during a program, checking reading logs and handing out prizes, answering simple questions from patrons about a program or directing questions to a staff member, and straightening/tidying up the Youth Services Department. 

Learn more at our Summer Reading Volunteer Meeting!

All Booked! Book Club

Join the All Booked! book club for a discussion of James by Percival Everett. From Amazon: “When the enslaved Jim overhears that he is about to be sold to a man in New Orleans, separated from his wife and daughter forever, he decides to hide on nearby Jackson Island until he can formulate a plan. Meanwhile, Huck Finn has faked his own death to escape his violent father, recently returned to town. As all readers of American literature know, thus begins the dangerous and transcendent journey by raft down the Mississippi River toward the elusive and too-often-unreliable promise of the Free States and beyond.”
