Behind every great book sale is an even greater team of people! 🐋📚

Preparations for our upcoming Whale of a Used Book Sale are officially underway, and we are looking for enthusiastic volunteers to help make this community tradition a massive success!
Whether you're a super-organizer who loves sorting genres, a retail-savvy helper ready to assist eager shoppers, or someone who just wants to lend a hand behind the scenes, we have a role for you. No previous experience is required—just a love for libraries and community!

The best perk? For every volunteer shift you work, you’ll receive two free books to take home! 📖✨ It's a win-win: support Jeffco libraries and grow your personal TBR pile at the same time.

Ready to dive in? Head over to https://www.signupgenius.com/go/20F0F4EABAB2FA6F85-65682541-fall #/to sign up for a shift today!
