Houston Public Library

Mission

The purpose of the Volunteer Services Program is to provide an opportunity for extending library services and support in the community through the involvement of citizens who have a helping concern for the library. The program is designed as a resource to the total library in meeting increased needs with volunteers, and to the volunteers by offering a valuable work experience and an opportunity to expand their horizons.
