Volunteer

Teen and adult volunteers play an important role as partners in Denton Public Library's mission to build community by promoting lifelong learning, encouraging human connections, and sharing resources. Volunteers must pass a background check and will receive on the job training.

Adult Volunteers

To become an adult volunteer, please create an account on Galaxy Digital and complete a background check through the library's introductory slideshow DPL 101: Volunteer Basics. You can also view current library volunteer opportunities. If you have any questions, please contact one of the Adult Volunteer Coordinators. We look forward to working with you!

Teen Volunteers

To become a teen volunteer, please watch the teen volunteer orientation presentation and complete the forms listed there. Or, if you'd like to attend an in-person orientation, check our events page for times and locations. The orientation is not intended for those seeking to complete court-ordered community service. If you have any questions, please contact the Teen Volunteer Coordinator at the location where you'd like to work.

Community Service

To ask about fulfilling hours for court mandated adult community service please contact the community service volunteer coordinator at the location where you'd like to work.

Denton Public Library is not currently accepting community service volunteers at Emily Fowler or South Branch. Please check back later or contact the library at library@cityofdenton.com if you have any questions.
