Policy Statement



The Marathon County Public Library supports volunteerism to supplement and enrich

library programs and activities. The library typically accepts volunteers to assist with the

Homebound Program and Summer Library Program events in the summer, but volunteers

may also assist with special projects and community events. The number of volunteers

accepted is based on need.



It is not the intent of the Library Board to use volunteers to supplant paid staff. No staff

members shall be terminated or have their hours reduced, due to the availability of

volunteers.



Volunteers will be subject to a background check and are expected to conform to Marathon

County Public Library policies.
