Volunteer Opportunities

The Library often has volunteer opportunities for teens and adults. Some Library programs and services would not be possible without the generous support of our volunteers. Please contact the library via email at library@phpl.ca if you want to express interest.

At this time we do not have any specific volunteer openings, but hope to do so in the coming months.

We require all individuals interested in voluteering to complete a Volunteer Application prior to consideration. Here is access to a fillable PDF that you can complete, save and send to us over email or print and drop off next time you're at the library. When we have an opportunity arise, we review applications and will get in touch with those that have expressed interest.

Please keep in mind that all volunteers 18 years of age and older will require a vulnerable sector check with police services.
