Volunteer Opportunities

We appreciate your choice to offer your time and abilities to the H.J. Nugen Public Library. The library offers a wide variety of volunteer opportunities that can help you gain valuable work experience, earn silver cord hours, make use of your skills and knowledge and meet new people while giving back to your community. The time commitment for our volunteer roles is very flexible. Volunteers must be incoming 9th graders or older. The first step to becoming a volunteer is to fill out an application & read and sign the Volunteer Release and Waiver of Liability Agreement and Photo Release. If you are under the age of 18, both the application and the waiver must be signed by a parent/guardian. Turn completed applications and waivers directly to staff at the library during regular business hours. Staff will review all volunteer applications and will be in touch if and when volunteers are needed.

Note: Applications are always accepted, but positions are not always available. If you have questions, please call the library at (319) 367-7704 or email director@hjnugenlibrary.onmicrosoft.com.

Volunteers can see current volunteer opportunities by installing the BAND app from the app store. Create a free account. Search for "New London, Iowa - Library Volunteers". The image will be our library logo. You will have to request to join, once you have applied to be a volunteer and turned in your application, your request to join in the app will be approved. The app is where we will securely communicate with our volunteers all in one easy location and where volunteers can see all available volunteer opportunities and sign up for ones they are available for. Volunteers will be contacted directly by the library director if approved to work a volunteer shift.
