Volunteer Coordinator

Volunteer Coordinator

The Library of Things YXE is looking for a Volunteer Coordinator to join our team.

This role is all about teamwork, supporting our volunteers, and helping create a positive volunteer experience. You’ll help keep our volunteer team organized, connected, and supported while working with our existing team to keep things running smoothly.

Responsibilities include:

• Coordinating and scheduling volunteers
• Training new volunteers and supporting the volunteer team
• Confirming weekly shifts and helping with last-minute changes
• Keeping volunteer information organized and responding to volunteer emails
• Running our Volunteer Perks Program

We are not looking for resumes. Instead, we would love to learn more about you, your interest in the role, and your connection to the Library of Things YXE.

If you are interested, please tell us:

• How familiar are you with the Library of Things YXE and our mission? What do you know about what we do?

• Have you visited the library, borrowed items, volunteered with us, or attended any of our events? If so, we’d love to hear about your experience.

• What interested you in the Volunteer Coordinator role specifically?

• What skills, experiences, or strengths do you feel you would bring to this position?

• Do you have any ideas or goals for how you would approach supporting and engaging volunteers?

This role also includes occasionally helping cover librarian shifts when needed. To help you get a better understanding of how the library operates and ensure the role is a good fit, we would ask that you be open to trying a couple of librarian shifts. This provides valuable insight into our lending system, member interactions, and day-to-day operations, which all help support the Volunteer Coordinator role.

If you enjoy organizing, connecting with people, and helping create a great volunteer experience, we would love to hear from you.

To express your interest, email coordinator@libraryofthingsyxe.com
