We apologise but we have no vacancies available at our libraries at present. We will reopen our application form when more vacancies are available.
We welcome volunteers who wish to support their local library. We have volunteer sessions running at Crossways and Sturminster Newton and are seeking volunteers to support sessions at Beaminster (on Friday mornings), Shaftesbury (on Thursday mornings) and Swanage (on Saturday afternoons).
Please see the role descriptions for Volunteer Coordinator and Volunteers. Full induction and training are provided.
To apply for the volunteer positions at Beaminster, Shaftesbury or Swanage Library, or to find out about other opportunities at other libraries please email Dorset Libraries. We look forward to hearing from you.
