Broward County residents come from all walks of life and have wonderful experience and knowledge to share with library patrons. Fortunately, giving back to your community by volunteering at your local library has never been easier, simpler or more fun! There’s sure to be a Broward County Library location in or near your neighborhood, where you can help in a number of ways, and with a flexible schedule that meets your needs.
Each One, Teach One
Making a real difference in someone’s life doesn’t just change them – it also changes you! The Library’s Each One, Teach One program gives you the chance to teach another adult to read and/or write. Participants are required to complete training.
