Volunteers clean and organize the toy collection once a week. The Pioneer Park Community Library is looking for individuals who can work independently, follow directions and communicate questions to staff.

Volunteers must be able to pay attention to detail, have strong organizational skills, and able to reach high shelves as some lifting and moving is involved.
