Teen Volunteering

Anoka County Library welcomes teens to apply for positions in the VolunTeen program. Teens assist with a variety of tasks to gain valuable college and career skills while also supporting the Library. If you are interested in general volunteering and need more than 5 hours, please fill out our VolunTeen application. The application for summer has closed. Fall applications will open in September. Please check our event calendar for summer opportunities that do not require an application. 

If you are interested in being a Reading Mentor to 1st, 2nd, or 3rd graders, please fill out the Reading Bridge Mentor application.

If you need 5 hours or less, please do not apply to be a volunteer. We encourage you to attend one of our Teen Service Opportunities instead. Visit our Event Calendar for more information.

Before volunteering at any library location on a regular basis, teens must complete a short interview, a background check, and orientation session. We do not offer same-day or even same-week assignments.
