• Under Pennsylvania law, volunteers age 18 and older must complete a number of background checks prior to starting service. Completion of these background checks can take as long as 6 weeks. The volunteer must pay for a portion of the cost of these checks.

• Volunteers must also undergo training prior to starting service.

• Community Service requirements for school or other organizations, or for court-appointed hours can be fulfilled at the Library.
