Expectations
Volunteering is like a job. Be on time and act in a professional manner. You are representing the library, a county government institution.
Be polite and courteous to patrons; ask them if they need assistance.

Expectations, continued
When volunteering, it is inappropriate to babysit your brother or sister.
If there is a situation or questions you feel uncomfortable with, excuse yourself and find a staff member immediately.
If a patron asks you a questions, simply say, “Let’s ask the librarian.” Then ASK!
